But some of the most visited and well-known websites are visually very old, hard to navigate, and haven’t updated their thumbnail sizes in ages. My thoughts behind this are the collections these sites have can and probably will grow overtime. I’m focusing more on user-friendliness, navigation and presentation, than on gross number of textures. These usually have categories that make it easier to find what you’re looking for. There are a lot of sites that provide free stock photos and most include textures, but while searching or browsing you’ll have to separate normal photos from textures, so I wanted to highlight websites that are specifically focused on textures. The quality of the final 3D models and scenes that you would create in an application such as Blender will rely heavily on the quality of the textures you are using, to this end we have curated the top 7 websites where you can download quality PBR textures to make your rendered output as realistic as possible, totally for free, with a creative commons license (CC0).As digital artists or hobbyists, we often find ourselves in need of texture images, be it to use as a background, to finish a concept art piece, or as a material for a 3D model. To achieve this photorealistic look PBR textures normally consist of several different texture maps which include information that describes the colour of the material, its reflectiveness and roughness, the depth and height and even how the material deals with ambient lighting.
For example, most metal materials will reflect a lot of light while a surface such as concrete will reflect very little light giving it a flat matt looking surface. PBR or Physically Based Rendering attempts to simulate how materials behave in the real world, particularly how they reflect and absorb light. What exactly are PBR textures and how do they help 3D artists create photorealistic images in applications such as Blender, Cinema 4D, Maya, Unity and Unreal Engine?
