- Before making your own textures, you should check out
- CG Textures
- 10ravens
- Make sure the texture you use has a license you like, and are able to use properly.
- Otherwise, download a program called The Gimp
- It isn't possible to tell you how to make any texture you want in one tutorial.
- Instead, google how to make the texture you want in gimp, there almost certainly is a tutorial out there somewhere. You may want to try the Gimp Talk forums to begin with.
- With some textures, there are things you should do to them to make them more realistic, such as adding dirt. Keep that in mind. [1]
- Then you will probably want to make it seamless.
- In Gimp go to
Filters → Map → Make Seamless
- An alternate way to make textures seamless can be found here: [2], a different version of the same tutorial can be found here: [3]
- Now you should save it and you are done!
- If you want, you can continue and make shader maps for your texture.
