Learning to textue [WIP]

Well you asked how I did it, here is a rather concise breakdown:

 

Original image

Embossed and cutout to base texture:

Placed in corners and opacity/fill adjusted to show detail and depth:

Case open to show detail of the etching:

Final result:

It took a bit of time to do this, but it is to demonstrate some of what it takes to create a detailed etching.

This one I am holding on to for the mod I am working on and will not be immediately available until it is released.

Looking good! A suggestion which may possibly save you time and/or give you more ideas is to use photo textures from stock sites. I know of two free ones off the top of my head, and best of all the resources are free whether you want to make free or commercial projects.

I am currently compiling a sample pack of some of the ones that I have shown, and well get some screenshots and will be uploading them to the Nexus later today.

 

I will post a link as soon as I have it uploaded.

 

Thanks for the positive reinforcement, it means a lot to me.

 

Just a couple of hours should do it, I am working between kittens being born this morning......love my kitties.
