Icontalking Activity #70 Vintage Textures


We haven't had a texture-making activity in a while! This time I thought we'd restrict the style a little bit and make textures that look vintage in some way - e.g. something to grunge up your icons, or something with faded colors or classic patterns.

I've put a few bases and inspirational material (which you can use as inspiration or directly to create your textures from) under the cut.



I lose the thumbnails, so beware, those pics are very large! The users/sites linked also have more textures to browse.

D'awww! I'm so glad you had another texture-making activity! I really enjoy making textures although, lately, I haven't really had time to make any!

I'm glad you liked them and hope they end up being useful!
