Distressed metallic texture pack

Astute Graphics have launched a new texture pack, made exclusively available to all Astute Graphics subscribers.

We set ourselves the goal of providing a series of unique textures using Adobe's new Substance software. This product, primarily aimed for the 3D texture generation, can also be used to produce unique and high-quality texture for use in Texturino.

For this, we took on the task of creating a series of materials made from mixtures impossible in real life; melted metal with leather, rusty metals with enamels, dirt with titanium (among others). The final product is the new Distressed Metallics collection of twelve textures in high 4k resolution, with three variants each.

Distressed Metallics

The first collection is textures rendered in 4k to use as full colour textures or backgrounds in high resolution.

Distressed Metallics KO

The second collection is black and white images (with the knockout blending mode set to default) generated by the detailed conversion of some aspects of the textures, such as roughness, bumps, and specular occlusion.

Distressed Metallics Repeating

The final variant will allow you to create perfectly repeating textured surfaces on all Adobe Illustrator artwork using Texturino.
