I want to try to find some orange brick texture like the one in the photo, but also, finding textures that actually work aren't easy. What one uses is what one can find as a free texture.

you can find free textures for anything but it might take a little photoshop work to get it the way you want

[jpetersjr]

If I can find it I can set it up to the correct size and everything in paint, I have Paint Shop Pro but just can't figure it out.

These textures have been so far completed through paint, and don't have photoshop, nor do I have the money to get it.

Because I have so much time to work on these because don't have much work lately, not working much, so I have to stay at the house and entertain myself by building these.

Good texturing is just as important in3d modeling as building a good model. Gimp is free & will do the same thing as photoshop & PSP http://www.gimp.org/

I'll give it a try, see if I can figure out how to use it.

I have Paint Shop Pro but just can't figure it out.

These textures have been so far completed through paint, and don't have photoshop, nor do I have the money to get it.

If you can't figure out Paint Shop Pro, it wouldn't matter if you had the money for Photoshop or not, you wouldn't be able to figure it out either.

Today I should be able to get finished with the building part and into the texturing.

Let's hope the model will export over into Crafter without any problem. Sometimes the faces want to disappear, which can destroy a model.

It tried that on both my recent Trackside Warehouse and Niles Tower where I had to figure out a way to fix it because at least one face on each was missing, gone, like it never was there.

The one side on the roof on the trackside warehouse had to be copied, pasted, and then turned around to fit on the other side because the entire right side of the roof was gone. Left was there, but no right.

On the niles tower, a window pain didn't show up, as well as the window interior of the one window that now looks like it had sheet glass in it.

Well, the good news is the model came through to Crafter fine, just had to do a little bit of repair work and once I finish it, should be today, I'll release it.

Some more progress.

Had to close in the bottom windows on the left of the building because of a problem with the export, but once I finish with them you won't even notice there was every anything there.

Never know, it might also make a good university to the repainters. (Hint,Hint)

I can also think of several other businesses this building could purtray as.

But since I was able to get it into the Crafter in one piece, I will be releasing it, I can assure you that.

Some more progress.
