Realstone ledgestone texture

I have an image of a stone panel veneer that I would like to mod to make it useful. Whats the procedure?
I considered modeling the panels (24"x6") Am I wishing?

I couldn't find my 3D hatch post... It may have been lost in the great database failure of aught seven. So here it is again. It was a long time ago and could be better.

thanks again

Thanks anyway Kris

Krisidious

it's the hatches you wanted... Take a look.

mics_54

yes hatches are for 2D drawings...I downloaded the hatches with the textures too but the textures they had were also on 3D warehouse and not what I wanted. The image I posted earlier is what I want to make into a USABLE texture but its awful in its current size.

I though some one might know of an easy way to change it. Your 3D model of the accent panel is more what I had in mind.

Well, a very quick and dirty job (the stones got a bit messy) but at least tiling (supposedly). Also a normal map for it.,..

Rich has been using some software to make textures... He'll hook you up with something that will allow you to make seamless textures. In the mean while I think Csaba has you covered. Sorry i thought you wanted to build it in more 3D.

here's a list of free ones
