2010-02-28T14:22:23Z

Hey!

I apologize for my lack of contribution to this challenge community and I would like to thank Anja for posting challenges without me, when I was busy.

About the challenge: It is a little different as now I didn't provide images, but cropped bases. I think it will make the challenge to be more special and it can always be a new adventure to work with someone else's crops. Have fun and let that creativity flow! :)

~ You are only allowed to use the bases provided below.

Stock - Roads & Forests

I cropped 4 beautiful roads and forests images and made 2 variants per images. I included them in the texture .zip file.

Here is a texture preview and a .zip pack with the actual files.
Also, I included the bases in the .zip file, because it made no sense to upload two files.

The .zip includes the textures of the following artists:
_iconographer, bambinainnero, cielo_gris, lemonpunch, lookslikerain, and spooky_window.

Enjoy creating art.

You might have heard of it already...

help_haiti is a place for fandomers to help raise money to help in the rescues, recoveries and rebuilding of Haiti following the tragic earthquake on January 12, 2010.

Go through the posts where people have offered their skills at creating fics, art, vids, podcasts, foods, toys, jewelry, clothing and more.
