I'm new to texturing and I have no more than 20 attempts , thats 4 of them. Tell me what you think



In those pictures only the box...

For one of your first attempts this is spectacular, simply add something like a height map and a shader for lighting and you could pass the level (with textures you've created) as pretty pro work. Congrats, and keep up the good work.

They're a bit too clean, but I'm sure they'll look good with a normalmap applied and some specular light.

I see clearly the filters for rendered clouds, noise and sometimes a bit motion blur. You could apply such effects more subtle to generate more realism.

The scratches seem to be painted, copied, off-seted and multiplied / overlayed. But they need a bit variation. You could soften the ends, erase some parts. Use different thicknesses to add variation.

I dont know how to do that I tryed btw , but maby I'll look into it deeper soon...

I havent used motion blur I dont like it because it produces strange lines at the ends of the texture

And I tryed to make it more dirty at the ends of every segment of the textures like a wear effect , scratched and shiny in time done by humans...but it didnt looked good. I still have to learn that one

And about that one ... you're right about the thickness , maby even I'll use diffrent colors sometimes. I did those exactly like you said , thats the only way I know and I did erased some parts in those textures but I guess it wasnt enough...
Later I'll post some more if I can reacreate the drawings I did (I use paper for concept )

PS.: Those are one of my first attempts , but I've used PhotoShop for buttons and Web logos , menu , effects for wallpaper...And btw the very first few attempts look promising in Photoshop and in my imagination on how they'll look in a game but they look horrible in 3DGS , dunno why.

they look pretty good, nice work

Tnx to all for commenting
And here's another wall texture I just made , but I think it doesnt look so good. For some reason all of my wall textures dont look good

The rest of the room has been made with the other textures I created.
Tell me what do you think about the wall texture and what can I add/remove/edit to make it look better...

PS.: This time I used a pattern (fibers) on one of the segments of the wall texture , tell me how does it look (if I should continue using it for effects)

well as plain as the textures seem, it appears that you have a real good eye for what color schemes go good, especially in that last pic.

I like the look of the textures EpsiloN !!
As already said, they look to clean but I'm sure you can adapt that easily ^^
Your on the right way, we may even call you Frank_G Jr. already

Cheers

Thank you both for the kind words

frazzle , by clean what do you mean ? stains and more scratches ?
(Originaly they were ment to be simplified , clean textures for sci-fi labs and hi-tech underground bunkers/bases. I dont like stains because they look bad in-game , they reveal where the texture tiles...but I'll try a few with stains tommorow)

And here are 2 more screens , one (sorry , I forgot to give a closer look) of the wall to show the fibers effect of the texture (should I remove it?)

and one to show the other wall texture that I made 3 days ago , (thats the second , the one I posted above is the 3-rd , and the first...well you cant even tell thats a texture,so I wont post it looks plastic )


EDIT:
PS.: I forgot to mention , I hate faking pipes and other things like that , because they just look fake in-game viewed in low angle in close look , I always try to make my textures simple enough to add more level geometry (and sometimes models) to make those pipes or other little details...
