New Week, New Free Texture
27Feb2008 Filed under: free textures Author: pixl p.
Recently, I was a butt of a prank and an oppurtunity came with it. My boss came busting into my office last week and threw a bag with a thousand (literally a thousand) ping pong sized balls into my office. Well after picking them all up out of every small corner in my office,(I am still finding balls) I decided that with this many balls I could take a really cool photo. So I decided to make a bottomless case then put it on top of the light table and dump the balls inside. I lit the table and starting taking photos. With the balls being somewhat translucent I got a nice little glow from behind. You can download the file after the jump. I have also placed another file in the folder that I played around with. If you have any other cool ideas that I can do with balls let me know, I am interested to see how how creative you are.

You can use anything on my blog in whatever shape and form you want as long as you are not selling the actual file or placing it on your site for others to download. You can post about my stuff and link to thepixlpusher.com though. Hope that helps.

Such a great texture. There has to be something around that you can just cover with all these balls to make it into a great work of art. Some super glue and imagination can go a long way. Thanks for all the great free stuff!!

Great idea, thank you!
…or you could draw a happy smiley on every ball, go on the street and make one thousand people smile!
