    Free Texture Friday – Corrugated Metal Textures

    I finally got a chance to go out and scout for places to shoot new textures. We’ve been having very bad weather lately so I haven’t been tempted to venture out looking until this week. I came upon an old shed in the middle of town that looked interesting. After checking it out, the first…

  • Free Texture Friday – Rusty Chain

    Free Texture Friday – Rusty Chain

    On one of my “texture” walks I came upon this old and Rusty Chain down by the harbor that was used to anchor some old rubber tiers to a pole. What caught my eye was that the chain was so cracked with rust and corrosion that it looked like it was going to burst into…

    Free Texture Friday – Corroded Metal Fence

    In today’s post I’m sharing a set of Corroded Metal Textures. Corrosion, or rust will definitely add another dimension and a worn & distressed effect to your designs. Corrosion is a natural process, the gradual deterioration of metals by chemical and electrochemical reaction with their environment. The most common form of corrosion is rusting, which…

    Free Texture Friday – Rotting Frames

    Today I’m continuing the “Rotten Wood” texture series by posting a new set of old Rotting Frames with rusty & vintage metal edges.

    Free Texture Friday – B&W Corrugated Iron

    I’ve always been a sucker for old and rusted metal fences and to find one that isn’t freshly painted around the area where live is getting harder than ever. This Corrugated Iron Fence has everything you can ask for, grunge rusted patches, old cracked paint and a gloomy textured surface. In post-processing I made it…

    Free Texture Friday – Yellow Rusted Metal

    Today I have a brand new set of yellow rusted metal textures from the cover of an old electrical cabinet which I walked upon in the local shipyard. The bright yellow color of it caught my eye so I decided to check it out. I guess it’s from an old motor, generator or a crane.…

    This week’s set features 5 rusted metal textures with peeling blue paint and plenty of rusty spots.

    Free Texture Friday – Red Rusted Metal

    I went on one of my texture-walks earlier this week looking for something different I could photograph and turn into awesome freebies. I decided to check out the local shipyard since I always find something interesting to shoot there, whether it’s concrete, wood or metal. There’s an abundance of old boats and rusty junk laying…

    Free Texture Friday – Dirty Metal

    These dirty metal textures are perfect for adding a significant amount of grunge and erosion to your designs and photography. They were part of a chimney system I came across, the soot dripped down and created this cool layered effect. Enjoy!
