Ornamental Textures Vol. 1
with Surface Solutions™


Now you can put "workmanship" back into your work!

For thousands of years the human race has been creating beautiful things and decorating them with simple, attractive patterns and designs. We live in a time of simple architecture and cold plainness, which 10,000 years of history assures us is just a passing fad. Unfortunately, we've discovered that this frigid sterility is creeping into your artwork! Now we can't have that, can we?

In an effort to ward off the ravages of 'simplistic design' we have assembled the largest collection of ornamental textures, that we are aware of, in the known universe. The ornamental designs included in this collection have weathered the test of time and many can be determined to date back to the earliest civilizations. Their popularity is seemingly eternal. Now, for the first time in human history, they are available as 3D textures suitable for use with:

  • Woodwork, Interior or Exterior
  • Furniture
  • Stonework
  • Jewelry
  • Page Decor
  • Metal Decor
  • Engraved Items
  • Ironwork

...and anything else you think needs a little dressing up!

This CD contains over 160 different Ornamental Designs which include medallions, crowns, panels, borders, corners and more and feature some of the most beautiful scrollwork and emblems devised by mankind over the past few thousand years. Each design includes:

  • 3 Color maps.

    You'll only use these one-at-a-time, but we've included one gold and one silver metallic color map for each as well as, what will probably be the most useful, a neutral light gray map that you can colorize to match or complement your situation.That makes them usable anywhere!
  • Opacity (clip) Map

    You'll be able to use these textures as decals over other textures or by themselves with equal ease.
  • Surface Solution Texture Map

    For the best 3D effects possible we've created a Surface Solution for every design. (What's a Surface Solution? Click here).
  • Bump Map

    For the traditionalists among you and for any situation where a bump map might be needed, we've included one for each design, but most of you will use the Surface Solution instead, we're sure.

That's 6 maps for each design, over 960 maps in total.

While many of these ornaments are standalone by nature, 30 designs are tilable making them useful as moldings and running trim patterns. Sizes vary too widely to list here, but most are 1024 pixels in at least one direction and we're sure you'll find it desirable to reduce them for use in many situations, but we have endeavored to present them in the highest practical resolution.

'..this was my first render. The whole thing took about 10 minutes and it's not finished, but hey, 10 minutes ago it was just an egg! Coolstuff.' -Shoda Kai

 

Just a few of the ornamental designs included on this CD (sizes are not relative-all were reduced from about 1024px).
