Creating Unique Sculpt Wear On A Trim Sheet (Pipeline Study)

I like to create my trims on a flat plane in substance painter. But how do you create sculpt grade level of detail thats... fast, flexible, and high quality? Let alone how do you do that on a plane? For some texture artist, its simple. Just launch up designer and begin... Well thats not something I particularly want to do. I don't want to learn designer. I want to take what I know (substance painter, anchors, filters) and conform it to what I need.

My pipeline breakdown is my approach on everything, identifying the problems with hand sculpt detail in a production setting (budget, quality, and time). And find something that can challenge all 3 of those while keeping it purely in painter.

ZERO Additional maps needed! No weird custom channels. No weird addons, purely manipulating painter to work like designer for trims!
