![]() ![]() It is then processed to achieve a consistent density and depth while increasing the interlocking of the fibres, before being trimmed and shaved to tidy up the edges.įelt can be a sustainable material if it is made from natural fibres such as wool, or by using recycled felt, yarn or carpet fibres that don’t contain glue or other harmful chemicals. The batts of felt are then further machine compressed and hardened before being cleaned, dyed and left to dry. ![]() Made by carding the clean, loosened and separated wool after removing matted clumps and tangled pieces, it then undergoes a rigorous process of being bound together under steam, then being pressed to matt the fibres together. Felt’s interlocked construction helps prevent splits and frays at edges, while it cuts and can be worked more favourably than knitted or woven fabric. The fibres themselves are normally lightweight, although the density of the fabric tends to make it somewhat heavier. Some acrylic based felts are waterproof by design. Being interlocking and matted, it is highly durable and water resistant. Dark grey in colour, this felt texture is a low-pile, high density fabric, similar in appearance to melton, a woven fabric. Felt traces its history back thousands of years to parts of both Asia and Europe, where it was initially used to make warm, insulated clothing, shoe linings and tents. The image represents a physical area of 500 x 425 mm (19.7 x 16.7 inches) in total.įelt is an interlocked and matted fabric which can be either natural, from cotton or wool fibres synthetic, from nylon, acrylic, or other similar synthetic yarn-like materials or a combination of both, usually wool and acrylic. you can also tweak the levels and such which may be less effective and harder to do.A seamless fabric texture with a felt surface. then you have to make them disappear by using tools such as clone/ healing so they don’t cause a problem when you tile your texture.įor equalizing colors/light you can use the “ High Pass Filter” or follow this. Press Shift+Ctrl+O then you’ll have the “x/2, y/2” option for offsetting ( more info) and when you offset your texture you’ll see the transition between edges of your texture in the middle of each axes (the seams). I downloaded two free texture creating apps, I will try them out tommorow and I will sort out the stretching problem with the UV map once I have a decent texture created. Hey there thanks for responding! What exactly do u mean by offseting the texture and removing seams in Gimp? And speaking about color, the suggestion PapaSmurf made about the color of the texture not being the same in every area is probably true, any idea how to unite the color of the black and white fabric picture? ![]() I am posting a picture down below, please let me know what solutions you can come up with! Thank you. Is there a way to prevent that from happening and have the same amount of detail in the stretched areas as is in the lower part of the clothing for example? Is there a way to create a texture using Gimp that won´t be doing that? Also as you can see on the breasts, the swimwears folds are stretching and deforming the UV map so the texture stretches as well. As you can see, it creates a patter which is a circle with highlighted area around it and it just doesn´t look good. When I use it on my unwrapped UV map of the clothing I made (in this case a swimsuit) its not very good looking.
