Free Texture Tuesday: Grunge

For this weeks textures I tried something new: mixing and layering several individual textures together in Photoshop to achieve a certain feel. It’s something I’ve tried previously in a project called Nebulae Grunge, and I’m pretty happy with the results, what do you guys think? Next week I’ll get back to filling requests though, so don’t worry ;)

Free Stuff: 3 Copies of Swift3D Photoshop Plugin (Windows Only) – Comment to Win

This week I’ve got a treat for 3 lucky Windows users. My friends at Electric Rain have just released a new Swift3D plugin for Photoshop CS4 Extended, and to spread the word, I’ve got 3 copies to give away! It’s WINDOWS ONLY, (sorry Mac users) so please only comment if you have a Windows machine. If you aren’t familiar with Swift3D, its a 3D modeling and animation software. The plugin aims to add more 3D functionality to Photoshop and it’s packed with features. Some examples can be found here. Good luck everyone :)

Free Texture Tuesday: Liquid

A couple of weeks ago Gene requested that I do some liquid textures, and seeing as this is something I’ve wanted to do for a long time… I decided to try my hand at it. The other day I was thinking about how there needs to be more “colorful” textures out there, so I’m pretty happy with the way these turned out. I created them by mixing drops of various food colorings with a little water, and voila! Enjoy!

Free Hi-Res Photoshop Brushes: Abstract Splatter

To kick off the week, I’ve got some hi-res Photoshop brushes for everyone. I call them abstract splatter. There are 10 brushes in the set, and they’re all 2500px. I don’t think these will be something most people would use very often, but you can’t have too many brushes, right? I’ve got CS1, CS3, and PNG’s available for non-Photoshoppers.
