Making Textures

I’ve been making textures for my 3D stuff. I needed a wood texture, but because of the rules, I have to create everything myself. I decided to take a photo of my laminate floor, and then tweak it in photoshop until it got closer to what I wanted.

I started with this:

Source photo of my floor

And eventually ended up with this…

Result, tweaked colours

…and this:

Result, smoothed out

I realize the smoothed one is pretty blotchy, but it actually looks decent on the game stuff itself.
