    this brick texture was origionally made tilable by my friend . i think it was his first tilable texture he made. I took the picture a while back and to show you how much i have progressed i went back to touch it up again and this is what i came up with . *image below*

    im still touching up the dark bricks to make it less noticable but this is my current wip for it.

    please let me know what you think.

    hey I'm the friend who tiled it the first time. . . its from a real place so there should be no qualms about brick shapes. But yeah mossy stuff needs work vivi.

    The shape itself is fine, it just doesn't show very well. The edges of the bricks are too blurry or something.

    Curman: niiiiiice

    thanks rd.................. .........

    its a brick tile. and yeah its got a zig zag pattern.

    the problem with the texture is that the stuff that seems to be grass or shrubs is only an overlay and you didn't make much of an effort to make it look like grass (or anything for that matter).... it's just a dark mush with no real shape or definition. It makes all the stones seem like they have very soft edges and creates distracting noise on your texture. Either make the grass right or leave it out and have stones only. The half-ass inbetween-stuff destroys what could otherwise be a great texture

    im sorry man but im not a texture artist . What i thought was a great idea ended up getting me chewed out by lots of people that i liked. i should prob just stop all together and just have some artist do the job for me ..... *broken heart*

    or you could stop acting like i stabbed your heart and use the crits to work on it and improve. what do you want me to do, tell you that everything you did was right and perfect? It's not. We all have room to improve... I just gave you some advice on where to start. But if you cant handle criticism then yeah maybe you should stop.

    BTW curman thats nice

    Swifty: Good start, but some things in it are too grainy in my most humble opinion. Besides that, the water damage looks fake (maybe group more, blur it a bit?). The trim (not the top one, the pipe thing below) suggests it stands out but then it looks like the whole texture is flat and that just looks weird. Besides that, i'd reduce the dirt on the top trim, nobody ever touched it i guess so why all the dirt / scratches? I think with a few slight changes it could look really cool
