Easy Textures

Marble, Soft Marble, Cracked, & Granite

 

Needed for this tutorial (free)  Toadies 1 and 2

A new collection of excellent filters, including the old ones, by Ilya Razmanov, alias Ilyich the Toad. These filters are really cool. Metalwork is used in some of my texture tutorials, but most of them are very useful. Included are two filters for making bevels.
