A few months ago before I had to go offline due to an extended family crisis there was one excelent photo reference package available in the marketplace. I come back and find many, many more now... They all look amazing and excellent for content/price but I only have the budget to get one at this time. Would someone please chime in with a suggestion of which package(s) was the most usable towards texture creation in their opinion? I'd really like to get into texturing but references are a better way for me to at this time rather than chase down co-workers with a cruddy Walmart digital cam :) Thanks for your time, -Des

Buy a subscription to the linked site. You'll get *all* the content there, and there are at least two (possibly more now) excellent photo texture sets.Coppula eam se non posit acceptera jocularum.

I just got a one month subscription to www.3d.sk and I like most of the full photoshoots there. One of the disapointments is that there are a varity of head shots but no body shots to go with them, which makes texturing a bit difficult for me. Mostly reguarding the older people head shots. but the full body male and female shots are really super. It's still an excellent ref site with some good varity and for a 1 month no recuring login it's about the cost of 1 texture ($19.99) not to bad.

MachineClaw, look at the members area photos, you have about 4 male and 3 female reference sets. Head, eyes, close-ups and body pictures are included ( and really quality hi-res ones ). Certainly the best ressource site ever for a price so low that it could be considered freestuff :)

Oh yea I know. I just really liked the old men head shots and am using them to do a texture pack, but there are no body shots, that was what I ment. Site has only been up for a while and there is a lot of content and varity in the photos. I like it.
