Planks and Panels

Texturing Resource by Jeremy Engleman

Sample Clip

Planks and Panels (2 DVDs of textures and 1 DVD of training) contains 305 high resolution textures for the creation of all kinds of man-made structured wooden surfaces. Included are photographs of boards, panels, planks and posts as well as specialty wood constructions. Gnomon Workshop textures are high resolution and seamlessly tileable. This allows for the creation of texture pages of any size - from a fly's eye view of a backyard fence up to the broadside of a majestic Spanish galleon. Every texture has a corresponding bump and specular map. These have been manipulated to ensure a proper bump and specular response, and are not simply a grayscale version of the color map. The textures are entirely handled and stored in 24-bit TIFF format to avoid any compression artifacts normally associated with JPEG images. Also supplied are more than 160 features - texture maps with alpha masks that add richness and variety to any texture project. Included are features commonly found with structured wood like nails, bolts, signs, hinges and more.

"As I have come to expect from the Gnomon Workshop, these DVDs are high quality, professional products. The texturing lessons are interesting and are especially useful for those who wish to learn a few new tricks... And of course the actual texture resources (the images, brushes, shaders, etc) are a fantastic addition to any artist's arsenal of tools. Unlike many texturing libraries available out there, the texture maps in this collection have been meticulously created so that they actually do their job correctly."
