The Textures thread

[RAMWolff44]

they are set up to be continuous and they are really kool!!! They are called "Cracked Tiles" I had learned from a tutorial by Gary Priester but they are completely my creation. I have them in red, blue, yellow, violet, green, orange, white, black and gray. I don't know if the forum accepts .zip files but if it does then I could zip the .png versions up and post them like that, the size of that would be 1.75 MB. I have them in .bmp (7.97MB), .jpg (2.84MB) (true color) and .gif (2.10MB) too.

They would look SO kool applied to a 3D object!!!

Let me know Gary, OK [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img]

Hi Richard--

All of the file sizes you quoted are too large for the forum software to accept. I'd post them as perhaps a single grouping of one at a time (that is, 3 images on one jpeg image you then post) wait for the group's reactions (they will HAVE to be better than their reactions to MINE [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img] and then post away again.

See how I ganged two or three images on one file? Do that.


My Best and let's see 'em!

I exported them from XaraX as a 'true color' .jpg so as not to loose any vital information but attemtpted to keep the file size down using the jpg format. It's still larger but I tried a reduced version of it and it looks crapy. So all the tiles are this large [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif[/img]

If this one proves useful then they will be worth the downloads if not then the one will not be too much a problem here!! I hope!!

PS: Stu, I have a green version that would look really awsome as a dragon skin [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

One thought though...won't the filesize become rather big for people with modem connections?

Gary: the image was a scan heavily manipulated in Photoshop.

This one is also a scan (I love to use my scanner as a sort of microscope: 800% and 600dpi and then I select details) that I manipulated. The symmetry was done with the idea of an Italian late-Renaissance marble table at the back of my head.

I LOVE this one. I just put it up as a tiled desktop background, lovely!!!

Thanks allot for sharing [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

I just got home from work and tiled Eric's submission onto my desktop here as well and was looking at it, And I think this would make a very successful pattern for a nice looking comforter for the bedroom or a throw for over the couch. It's really stunning. Someone in the textile industry should be looking at this one [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img]

And one other interesting thing I noticed, you can see an alien face looming out at you, pretty neat looking [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img] Study it and see if you can see it there [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

reminds me of a painting on a ceiling of an ancient cathedral.

Absolutely fantastic!

I agree with jens on the classical look [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]


Richard thanks for the kind offer of the Dragon skin,but the one it has took me days to get right as it is aligned to a UV map.I plan to post a decently lit image of it yet,but I am having to constantly rebuild its wings to make them fold when using bones,and if you dont get the folds right it looks crap and then some,so when that happens its back to the drawing board [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif[/img]


Apologies for not commenting on textures on first page,but on a 56k modem it takes ages,so I wait for the second page to pop up [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img]

Thanks for liking this one.

Jens: I never saw it like that, but: yes! I once was in Bavaria and there I saw some of the incredible baroque churches (and King Ludwig II's castles...sigh...) and there is a resemblance. Thanks for opening my eyes. [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif[/img]
