Preserved Topic: Textures...

Or, more to the point, texture libraries.

I'm not referring to the little tiled images you use for your web page backgrounds, more so the high resolution photo realistic textures.

I've come across a few gold mines of photo-real texture libraries in my time but have since lost all my links. Of course, no matter how hard I search I just can't seem to find any decent resources.

I could splash out and ~gasp~ purchase one of those professional quality texture libraries that many of the professional 3D artists use but well, Their really expensive and I don't think I'll ever need any where near that many textures. At rare times it's just handy to have a few sites to browse through.

The only half decent link I've got so far is the 3D Cafe library: www.3dcafe.com/asp/textures.asp

So, any links would be muchly appreciated.

Fun stuff here : http://www.meshmen.com/kvarntorp/

Yay fun!.... Oh... 'cannot find server'......

You have a funny idea of fun.

Heh, they might be having server problems, I'll check it again later. Thanks for the link. I'm sure it's good.

Actualy, I've been searching since I made that post and I did actualy find ~some~ of my old links.

Don't underestimate the power of a camera and a scanner. Maybe a digital camera, but I prefer scanning. Scan big and operate -- you know the drill.

great links Dracusis. oh I think the Meshmen thing is down for good....the server was also down when I last checked for a couple of days now.

cheers

Here's my site:

I am working on a texturecd for Marlin Studios as well. I haven't updated the site in awhile, but it should help.
