Who wants some free stuff? Yeah, I know, we all do. Grant from Colorburned wants to spread the word about his awesome high-res texture packs, and that’s what I intend to help him do. The Colorburned shop has 6 ginormous texture packs, and 3 lucky commenters will be downloading all of them. But wait, I’m not done. Even if you don’t win one of the (3) grand prizes, you can still get a discount on these texture packs, which are already very affordable. Everyone wins! So if you just can’t wait, put all 6 packs in your cart and enter the code BITTBOXFRIEND to take $10 the 50% price, bringing the total price to $25. (That’s roughly $0.08 per texture folks)

I know I’ve been on a texture kick recently, but I’m hoping you all don’t mind. These are the textures I created in order to make my most recent set of Photoshop Brushes. I didn’t see a reason to let then collect dust on my hard drive, so I thought I’d share the source files. They look quite different in full color :) You can click on each image to view at Flickr, or download all in a zip at the bottom.

I have to admit … These textures were really fun to make. I went to a little book store over the weekend that you can’t even find on Google Maps, bought a book that is about 50 yrs old, dissected it (literally), and scanned all the parts. It took a while, but I have a very cool free high resolution texture pack for everyone to download. There are 12 textures, all over 3000px. You can see them all individually on flickr by clicking on each image, or download all of them in a zip at the bottom.

We all love textures, right? I was recently emailed by a BittBox reader about a new texture site, LostAndTaken.com. It’s a blog style site and definitely worth bookmarking. All of the textures I downloaded for testing were a massive 3072 x 2048px, so I’m guessing the author has a pretty darn kick-ass camera. Oh yeah, and all of the textures are copyright-free and can be used for personal as well as commercial purposes.

I’ve only been making textures for a while now, but everyone seems to love them. I know I can’t ever get enough textures either. So I’ve been surfing and made a list of sites that offer free textures to download. Some have more than others, and some sites have higher resolution images than others, but they all have one thing in common, free downloads.
