Source for Printable Tiles, Signs, Murals, Rugs, You Name It...

I stumbled upon this fantastic website today: cgtextures.com. It is a miniaturist's haven, chock full of printable stuff and reference photos! Check out the "fabric" folder for carpets and patterns. The "manmade" folder has gauges, buttons, coins and all sorts of reference. The "paper" folder contains books, wallpaper, etc. And the "tile" and "marble" folders contain so many patterns to choose from! For a walk on the macabre side, take a peak in the "bones" folder! The photos on the site are also a great reference for plaster, concrete, brick, roofing, architectural ornaments, murals, rust, windows, doors, you name it... and did I mention that they are high resolution and free? Have fun!
