System Requirements
Bricks and Blocks (2 DVDs of textures and 1
DVD of training) contains 250 high resolution textures for the creation of all
kinds of brick and cement block surfaces. Included are photographs of clean
bricks, bricks which have been painted, bricks used as paving stones, rough and
worn bricks, as well as specialty and decorative bricks. Gnomon Workshop
textures are high resolution and seamlessly tileable. This allows for the
creation of texture pages of any size - from the walls of an entire factory
complex down to the exposed brick surrounding a mouse hole. Every texture has a
corresponding bump and specular map. These have been hand manipulated to ensure
a proper bump and specular response, and are not simply a grayscale version of
the color map. The textures are entirely handled and stored in 24-bit TIFF
format to avoid any compression artifacts normally associated with JPEG images.
Also supplied are more than 200 features - texture maps with alpha masks that
add richness and variety to any texture project. Included are features commonly
found with bricks like graffiti, paint, windows and more.
