Hi, I would like to know where I can find good textures for free and nice designs,and how to make the map for those designs for example if we want to make a design of shirt in which the buttons aren't in mid but are placed more toward left side then would I be able to made it.

I have tried gimp for everything but it seems having less features, does any extra plug-ins and tools come for it? If there is where can I find it.

Is there a way or a tool that automatically generates the map with a picture a 2d map, I have seen very smooth designs many creators make but whenever I try with mouse it is like just fluctuate, should I use a tablet for editing rather than pc.

And any good tutorials how to make meshes, I watched some on you tube and I could understand some things about choosing avatar in blender then add a mesh cube and like deleting faces and all and moving it but still I am not able to make designs because it is being tough to move the nodes the way I like.

I use midjourney to generate base textures, and then edit in gimp. If something is not in the right place, then I select and move.

You can get texture maps with MPR: buysell/product.php?product_id=1443
Just recover the parent product to access the texture map.

what textures are you looking for? i usely just go to https://www.deviantart.com/ or i head to google and and find my textures that way. and make my own opacity's. i can also suggest messing with blender and making things on there as well. it can be challenging but it also work and fun to mess and try new things

Yeah I also use Google for textures and yeah mostly I uses the clothes pics available in shops to get their textures because the dress I designed have lots of textures in them so a single texture don't work mostly, and yeah regarding opacity I have learned how to make them and alo how to make them transparent as well it was challenging first in gimp to make opacity but I have started to get hang of it, and usually use 4 opacity map in single clothing, and meshing is being very tough for me I mostly can get a cube then cut and squeeze it into shape but as u know I still can't make a good mesh it's being very tough to do that.

yeah i feel you i just started meshing as well using blender. i have been messing with nodes and adding more in to i can use one shape and change the shape to what i want. also using texture paint i have just learn as well. maybe one day i will come across something you make. keep trying and don't give up a believe in you.

Hey there, I completely understand! I'm new to meshing in Blender myself. I've been exploring the nodes system and adding them to my workflow, which lets me easily manipulate shapes. I'm also trying out texture painting for the first time. Maybe someday I'll stumble upon something you've created! Keep practicing and don't give up on your goals. Believe in yourself!
