MoP - Victorian texture set!
polycounter lvl 18
OK, gonna try to finish this one... cos I really like the subject matter :P
Stuff like this is just fantastic, this is the sort of look I'll be going for - peeling painted metal, smoke-stained brickwork etc. Very industrial workhouse feel. I actually found a decent victorian-era out-of-commission tram house about 30 minutes walk from here this afternoon, got some video of that.
Reference I'm looking at:
I'm getting this stuff from http://www.greatbuildings.com/types/styles/victorian.html
A little treasure of nice reference photos.

Yeah, there's 6 here, but I like this theme so much I might even do as many as 20 :P
This is my "Workhouse" set ... I still have a few to make, archways for doors, and some brick trim and such, but I'm fairly happy with these ones ... I haven't done any texture work for ages!
The set so far:
Quick test render:
Enjoy!

Other than that, these looks ace. Your base (and ultimately all the rest) have a row of dark bricks that run horizontally through the texture. It's really noticable on the test you've done - might be something to think about changing later on.
Good job man!
And you're right about the dark brick row, I was aware of it but didn't get round to fixing it. I'll go over these later and sort it out
Thanks!
The black dark brick is the only complaint I can see at the moment.
Can't wait to see the rest.
I wonder too, the bricks are so well done are they pictures or painted? Could you post a link to the foto if this the case, and they are free :O
Badname: I bought the CDs from http://www.mayang.com/textures last year, they're a great resource, but you can download the textures for free off their site too. I just like having them all on one handy disc
Though ya know,same complaints as the others....
The quality this week is of very high standard im impressed,not sure I can get mine done though,picked up a flu kind of bug and feel like crap,spent the best part of the last 24hours in bed.
Anyway,keep them coming sir!!
