C4D set 3

Just a few abstract c4ds for today. Put them to good use. The first two are more for vector-based images, while the last one is just pretty dang cool.

11 Weathered Board Stocks

So, we’ve had this shed out back for a few years. While it isn’t old in any way, the wooden boards on the outside have taken a slight beating due to the Western Washington weather we normally get. Last week while I was outside I saw the boards and thought, “Why don’t I share these as textures to my readers?” So here they are, at 4000px by 3000px, 11 stocks of weathered wooden boards. Download them separately as you need them or download the zip file here.

All are 4000 pixels wide and 3000 pixels tall. Download them separately as you need them or download the zip file here.

New Design

So this weekend I finally got around to creating a unique design for this website. I didn’t actually “create” it, but instead edited an existing theme called Motion by 85ideas. The background image was created by using a few textures from Lost and Taken. Over the next few weeks I’ll be adjusting the layout of the site even more until I get the look I like that separates it from the rest.

C4D set 2

Here are three more C4Ds. These are different from the last one in that they’re called effect C4Ds. Effect C4Ds are made more for lighting effects in signatures and avatars through use of blending modes such as screen or linear dodge. Of course, there may be others uses, so don’t be afraid to experiment with them.

Seamless Texture: Light Spots

Messing around in Photoshop can create some interesting looking textures. I forget exactly how this texture was created, but it does create a nice lighting effect with some depth.

New Project: C4d’s

Sorry for the week long hiatus. Some things regarding graduation had come up, but since I’m almost done with that, I can return to offering you great resources.

So, one project I’ve recently been looking into is Cinema 4D. The program is great for making three-dimensional images, such as for movies. But one use of the program is to create 3D graphics for use in signatures and wallpapers.

So, to start this off, I’m giving away three abstract C4ds. Hope you enjoy them.

Fractal Friday Set 6

For some reason or another, I’ve found myself creating quite a few fractals with a circular theme going on. I thought I’d put them all into one set for you guys as sort of a “theme” set.

Download them one by one below, or download the zip file here.

Seamless Texture: Sci-fi Fiber

While messing with colors, this eerie look instantly reminded me of a scheme one mght find in a science fiction movie. As usual, this seamless texture can be tiled and is great for backgrounds. Enjoy!
