Remake HL textures

[Term]

looks prety good dont like the yellow though

Yep, I noticed that on a lot of textures in this thread with paint on it, the paint often looks like watercolors. It seems as if most of you just copy the color layer onto the structure layer which makes the structure look through too much.

Just think that those surfaces are varnished with full opacity and underlying structures would only shine through with their bumps but not with colors or contrast, the only place where an underlying material is fully visible is where the color peels off.

My take on it:

Original:

Enlarged & enhanced:

Hey that looks cool Term

also I would not reccomend using the original texture at all in the new ones, I keep seeing some with the original scaled up and overlayed in the new one. Makes it look blurry still.

yeah, thanks for tagging your textures so no one can use them, kinda defeats the purpose.

look good though

They look ok except for the first one, which needs a lot of work. The fifties wall looks odd with that pattern in the middle too. The last one's the best but it doesn't really resemble the original very well. Good efforts though, HL textures are pretty hard to recreate..

I'll have a go at a sign tomorrow sometime.. promise.

Clayman i like your textures, solid work. However i have some chritics:

1st texture looks great! But the 1 unit black line looks way out of place.

2nd: nice rusty metal but the srews are too big

3rd: keep in mind that HL found place in a research facility not in a mansion/house. The wall look alittle too house like,

Same goes for texture 4. Seems like a concrete wall that belongs to a facility or factory

Welcome to MapCore Clayman! Nice textures, but I agree, the tag and the pic of the orginal texture is kinda out of place.

cool splitta, i would suggest making the green water stuff look like it stained the wall and not like its falling out of the pipe atm because it looks kinda funny if you dont

[Splitta]

oh thought it would fall out of the pipe
