Jan Cavan — Thu, 15 Jul 2010 06:59:09 +0000

Now that it is the summer season, it is the perfect time to get out there and enjoy the sun. I also thought it would be of perfect timing to be giving away a nice set of Sky and Lens Flare Textures for you to utilize in your future projects.

For our loyal readers, Dawghouse Design Studio has teamed up with Sky-Textures.com and we’ve put together some awesome Sky and Lens Flare Textures exclusively for you guys!

The Sky Texture Pack contains 10 high-quality sky textures.

The Lens Flare Texture Pack contains 15 unique lens flare textures.

Bored of the usual Lens Flare plug-in that’s built within Photoshop? You may also mix and match the textures as show on the example below. Simply place a lens flare texture over a sky texture and change its Blending Mode to Screen.

These textures are of high-resolution so they are perfect not only for your web projects but for your print projects as well. They are also free for your personal and commercial projects but may not be sold or redistributed in any way. Comments and link backs are not required but are very much ppreciated.

Download these textures packs now! More high-quality sky texture packs are also available from Sky-Textures.com if you purchase their DVD.

Free Weekly Hi-Res Texture Pack: Heavy Acrylic Stains Textures

Jan Cavan — Sun, 15 Nov 2009 15:06:42 +0000

I was looking through my set of poster colors and didn’t even realize I had a set of acrylic paint. I remember that last year, a friend of mine who collects miniature die-cast cars asked me to paint one of the cars from her collection. This is how I got the tiny set of acrylic paint I have now so for this week’s free texture giveaway, I thought of playing with these paints and give away 6 High-Quality Heavy Acrylic Stains Textures!

Free Weekly Hi-Res Texture Pack: Bricks

Jan Cavan — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 04:16:57 +0000

For this week’s free texture giveaway, we are giving away 4 High Quality Brick Wall Textures! I was walking around Disneyland with my camera a few months ago and decided to walk around and take pictures of brick walls. I only found two so decided to just add a few more when I get back to my country. It’s pretty hard to find brick textures here in my country as most structures here are made of concrete and I didn’t really have the time to check out farther places but I’m glad to have found two more. I hope you find good uses for these textures!
