Looking for textures for your 3d modeling and graphic design work? 

It's really hard to find good textures to use with your 3d modeling design and graphic design projects that would suit exactly to your needs.  That is why every artist should have a wide range of texture library that he can easily pull out whenever he needs it.  The problem is, not all artists have a full range of textures in his library every time. 

Fortunately, we live in a time where a lot of materials and information can easily be pulled out from the internet.  This includes textures and photos we can integrate with our 3d modeling and graphic design work.

I found these two websites that have a lot of textures to choose from and can be downloaded for free.

If you think Sketchup is a less superior 3d modeling and rendering software, well think again.  I was one of those who saw Sketchup as just a simple 3d modeling program whose ability is only limited to the basic shapes and forms and does not compete to the more complex and versatile 3d modeling and rendering softwares like 3ds Max or Maya.  And then I saw this image by Jacques or "silver_shadow" posted in the sketchucation forums and it changed my views on Sketchup instantly.
