DOSCH Textures

[Huligar]

Germany, Jan 25, 2008 - DOSCH Textures: Rocks released.

Dosch Textures: Rocks provides 100 meticulous depictions of seamlessly tile able rock and stone textures. Contained are various sedimentary stone types (limestone, sandstone; often porous structure), as well as crystal-based igneous rocks (granite, basalt, quartz) of varying grain-size. Also included are marble patterns. All textures can be applied to 3D-models comprising a multitude of themes.

These high-resolution (2048 x 2048 pixel) Dosch textures can be used for animations, architectural visualization, and for all kinds of computer graphics or print applications (e.g. catalog, magazine).

The multi-layer textures (provided are color- and bump-map for each texture) which can be used in most 3D-animation and CAD applications, are all provided in the JPEG-format with the highest quality-settings.

Please use the "PDF-Overview"-link above for a complete list of all textures contained in the product.

All textures are license-free and can therefore be used without any additional cost in all* commercial productions. (* view License Agreement)

	igneous IGNEOUS A geological term used to describe a type of stone formation. Granite is an example of an igneous stone.

	limestone LIMESTONE A sedimentary rock composed of calcium carbonate.

	Marble MARBLE: CHARACTERISTICS This standard includes general information on the characteristics and common uses of marble and identifies typical problems associated with the material. INTRODUCTION Marble is an extremely hard, metamorphic stone composed of calcite (CaCO3). It is formed as a result of the recrystallization of limestone under the intense pressure and heat of geologic processes. The effect of this process is the creation of a stone with a very tight crystalline structure and small but definite porosity. Because of its structure, marble can take a very high polish and is a very popular decorative stone for architectural and sculptural uses. The limited porosity of marble, especially polished marble, makes it less vulnerable to the leaching effects of water. Calcium carbonate, however, of which marble is composed, is highly susceptible to attack by acidic agents. Marble is readily dissolved by acids, even very dilute acids, however the actual results of acidic exposure will vary with the nature of the acid. Chlorides, nitrates, sulfates and other chemical compounds react differently with marble and produce various by-products, which have a wide range of solubility and impact on the durability of marble. For this reason, it is always important to determine the exact type of pollutants causing marble deterioration. Marble itself can be of two types, one composed of calcite and the other of dolomite. Dolomitic marble is much more resistant to acid attack than calcite marble. The color of marble ranges from the brilliant white of calcite to black, including blue-gray, red, yellow and green, depending upon the mineral composition. TYPICAL USES Marble has many decorative and structural uses. It is used for outdoor sculpture as well as for sculpture bases; in architecture it is used in exterior walls and veneers, flooring, decorative features, stairways and walkways. The way in which the stone is used may be a factor in limiting or controlling the severity of exposure. The use or function of the marble may also affect the feasibility of applying certain treatments, but type of use is not the primary factor in the major types of deterioration and damage to which marble is susceptible.

It's wonderful .

How can I see all the stone texture through net freely ?
