The best sites for free textures
01. AmbientCG
- Go to website
German artist Lennart Demes's AmbientCG is not only one of the largest texture libraries online, it's also one of the best for quality with more than 1,300 seamless PBR materials in JPG or PNG format. Most of the textures here can be downloaded at 8K (even higher in some cases). They're all free via the CC0 Creative Commons licence, so they can be redistributed and used for any project, personal or commercial. Many materials come with SBSAR files allowing users to be able to tweak them in Adobe Substance 3D.
02. Poly Haven
- Go to website
Co-founded by designer Rob Tuytel, Poly Haven is another top-quality library made possible by Patreon supporters. Again, its textures are all available under CC0 for both personal and commercial use. It has a relatively small number of textures compared to the first site on our list, with just over 200, but they're all available to download at 8K and 16-bit resolution in PNG format. You can also download each texture's AO, Diffuse, Displacement, Normal and Roughness Maps for more control. The site offers libraries of HDRIs and models too.
03. Pixar One Twenty Eight
- Go to website
This texture library features 128 textures from the animation giant Pixar. It was created back in 1993, but it's been updated for modern times. Containing everything from brick to animal skins, it offers some gems that you can use in your own projects.
04. 3DXO
- Go to the website
With a more than respectable 620 free textures currently available for download, 3DXO's collection stands out for its ease of navigation. It's quick and easy to scan through the collection to find exactly what you're looking for, whether that be a simple wall or floor surface or something a little more exotic. The site also has a small library of 3D models and stock photos for you to rifle through, so stock up while you're there.
05. 3D Textures
- Go to the website
João Paulo's collection of free 3D textures isn't as big as some other libraries, but the textures are great quality, and they come with the added advantage of diffuse, normal, displacement, occlusion and specularity maps. You can download them one by one, but if you buy Paulo a coffee, he'll give you a link to the folder containing all of his textures so you can grab them all together.
06. Texturer
- Go to website
Texturer is a creative resource for 3D artists, designers, web designers and animators, providing a comprehensive selection of high resolution textures. For ease of use, all textures are organised into categories and sub categories, featuring everything from brick, buildings and doors to animals, food and fabric.
07. 3DTotal
- Go to website
3D Total is a brilliant resource for CG artists, with training, an inspiration gallery, 3D assets and a free textures library. It hasn't been updated of late, but how much do textures change, really? The site has a whopping 16,631 free high-res royalty-free images, which you can search through by category or using the search tool provided on the site. Note: images offered here are subject to this Licence Agreement.
08. Environment-textures.com
- Go to website
There aren't a ton of free textures to download here, but there is a varied selection of free options. If you're willing to pay out a little bit, there's more variety available at a very low cost, with plenty of discounts available.
09. Textures.com
- Go to website
Featuring everything from animals to X-Rays, Textures.com has a wide array of textures that you can download once you've registered for an account. You can browse by texture type or view the latest additions to the site. There's even a small selection of tutorials for you to try.
10. Arroway Textures
- Go to website
Arroway Textures offers a range of fantastic surfaces. This site sells individual and bundled textures, but the neat system lets you download lower resolution examples of just about any texture they sell for free. The only restriction is that they can only be used for non-commercial use.
11. 3D Texture
- Go to website
Like CG Textures above, the 3D Texture gallery is a showcase for texture libraries and backgrounds. Browsable categories include cloth and fabric textures, glass and metal textures, sky textures and vehicles/car textures. You can also view new and the most popular images, as rated by the site's members.
12. TurboSquid
- Go to website
Not only is TurboSquid an extensive library of pro-grade 3D models, but it also claims to offer "the world's largest collection of textures". It's certainly crammed with stuff and encourages its users to submit their own textures for sale. Simply search for what you need, then narrow down your choices by checking compatibility with 3D modelling programs like Maya.
