Lupus55 - I cannot say much about the brushes as I do not have much experience with them. Do not be confused by the tutorial, I am not trying to create a weathered metal look for a plane or boat, I am only trying to understand how he took a large image, cut it up into smaller pieces, used the pieces as indivudual textures to be placed on the larger master texture. I had hoped to use this tutorial for two major aspects of my city driving animation, the first would be to create a detailed texture for the road which will require textures in the range of 1500 x 7500 pixels with correct US and also a European set of road markings. The largest texture is required for the road berm, grassy areas including mountains, and also the city concrete areas where the buildings sit. Those textures will be small if they are 10K x 10K, so larger is better. Based on this size, I had hoped to take smaller images in the range of 2K x 2K and create the larger texture using the above tutorial procedure. Unfortunately I do not know how to accomplish this yet.

I will look at the grungy brushes, but I suspect that they will allow me to modifiy textures, not create the master textures.

Vince
