Free Texture Tuesday: Old Film
The other day I released a set of 11 Old and Grungy Film Textures on Lost and Taken that were accepted quite well, so I thought I’d do an encore release here on Bittbox. Just like the previous post, these textures were created using public domain images that were taken in the mid 19th century using the Daguerreotype method. I simply removed the subject matter from the images in Photoshop to leave only the textures of the old film. Hope you like ‘em!

Free Texture Tuesday: Smoke
I wanted to do some sort of roundabout dedication to our new incoming President with this week’s textures, but I didn’t want to do something too boring. It’s no secret Barack Obama is a smoker considering how widely publicized it’s been. He will join only three other presidents who were smokers: Warren Harding, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, and Lyndon Baines Johnson. Here’s to you, Mr. President!

Free Hi-Res Photoshop Brushes: Destroyed Heraldry
I’ve got another high resolution Photoshop brush set for everyone’s downloading pleasure! I call these “Destroyed Heraldry,” and they were super fun to make. All of them are super-hi-res (most are 2500px). I spent a lot of time on each one individually, and they are a combnation of over 3 different types of media, and multiple layering effects to get to the end result.
Free Texture Tuesday: Light Blur
Time for a something a little different today, folks. To create these “light blur” textures I set my shutter speed to around a half a second, aimed my camera at a bright colored object, and spun or moved the camera quickly while the shutter was open. I hope you can find some unique uses for them!
