Textures site?

[SteveHRD]

How do you all find textures (preferably seamless seems to be the best ,as looking to show in 3D PBR) to make custom materials? Is it just a Google search? Or is there a good dedicated site?

Free, or paid would be worth it. 

As I've made some custom materials for composite deck boards, patio pavers, stone walls etc with ok success, usually just from a sample swath off the manufacturer's site. Now was looking for a concrete broom finish, but there's endless on Google, and none seem to transfer in to CA well without getting blown out.

Have you tried making your own with the material builder (new in X17)?

Wow! thanks very much Rene, that's an amazing tool/s!!! Just what I needed.

I have been on your site before on the forum and taken advantage of some of the free symbols, thanks. Also your crews designer show, never got signed in live, but always make sure to watch every episode as learn so much from it!

Actually was planning on reaching out sometime in the next month or so, as I'd like to do a a bit of customization stuff with you. So hopefully that'll pay you back a little. As truly appreciate everything you do for us Chief users!
