Asset Proposal: TexFusion:A Mix of Hand Painted Goodness and Real World Reference

Hey all,

So I had an interesting idea for an asset package a while back. I’ve spent a lot of time browsing different texture packages out there as I’ve taught myself modeling/texturing over the past couple years, but I always thought there was room for something else not many people have provided. A niche, perhaps…

What if I were able to provide you with a texture that is a balanced fusion/blend between a hi-res photographic image (I have a mix of images I have taken and royalty free ones I’ve picked up) and hand-painted work? I’ve never seen something quite like this pulled off before so that’s why I ask. I think it could be suitable for a vast array of games because it’s loose enough to incorporate stylized/cartoon games, but realistic enough to make a more realistic game believable. The style reminds me of a mixed media approach in traditional art. It’s sort of a balancing act but I think I could make it work. It’s unique.

Any textures I make in this style will be available in FULLY TILEABLE GAME READY 512, 1024, and 2048 resolutions with ALL Maps: Diffuse/Normal/Bump/Height/Displacement/Specular…even Opacity and Ambient Occlusion if your heart so desires.

Here’s an example of a 256x256 for demonstrational purposes:

They take me quite a bit of time to do but if you all are interested, I could definitely make this available. Let me know!

Anyone?

I think you should try this out and showcase it, sounds like something worth pursuing, people will of course be looking at the results more than the idea.
