Hi! Long time since a been here some of you maybe remember me

I have a question to all of you .

Do you download textures for example from arroway or some other site and do you guys think there is to little high quality textures out there ?

Please iam doing a research about this and would like to here your opinion ?

thx

The best texture maker is my Canon, Photoshop, and ImageSynth. Other than that, I find lots of good textures on CGTextures. But you're right, most of the textures out there are BAD.

i wish all textures would be as good as these...

Thx guys for your time .

Hiya DIA, long time no see! how are you doing these days ?

About textures, it all depends on what's required. Sometimes commercial textures works fine and sometimes they don't. The resolution of them was pretty poor in the past but recently it has changed and now they look better, however highquality textures are always welcome. Any free textures you find online usually suck and requires you as a user to redo them from scratch if you want something useful.

Hi Maximus! Iam doing just fine thx! working for Systeam Cab and doing alot of images I belive that customers are getting more and more in to photorealism and then highquality textures are very useful but often soo hard to find. Arroway is the only company i think thats deliver really good stuff so far.

That's very good to hear DIA yea highquality realistic textures are useful for all artists who produce photoreal renderings, seamless textures too if possible. I assume you are still shooting pics with your nice camera, then you must be going to the Fotomässan on the 9-11th April hehe, if so.. maybe i'll see you there. You should post your photos in the photothread here to share them with the rest of the world. Btw, are you still using Maxwell ?

Hehe maybe i will share some photos Actually its mostly vray (ops can i say that here ) Maxwell is often to slow for us.

Ofcourse you will share photos ow.. that's a shame Maxwell is too slow for your type of work, however you could still use it in private.

Surely there will be a Maximum limit for high res tho as a texture at 12000 x 12000 seems huge! what if it starts progressing to 20000 x 20000 or 40000 x 40000 no doubt it prob will wont even need seamless or tilable textures that can be an advantage I guess!

Very interesting Tea_Bag . Memory is no longer a big problem in most cases so large textures is great i think abd you dont need to tile them thats a huge advantage as you mention.
