Each door and garage door clipmap texture is either free of background or has an opacity map provided that can be used remove the background if you so wish.

2. Exterior window treatments - Shutter Clipmaps - Archifx 3D Studios provides Shutter clipmaps which add interesting detail to an illustration.

WARNING: Beware of the many texture collections available today that claim to have...

A. "seamless textures and tileable textures" - It's true that most of those textures don't have any seams, but after they are applied to your rendering it looks like your building has caught some kind of disease like the CHICKEN POX! The same pattern so noticeably repeating itself over and over. You sit there and think to yourself "Did they even check to see if these textures worked?" Well we did. In order to provide you with quality textures, Archifx 3D Studios has taken the effort to put every texture though the test by applying our seamless textures to actual renderings. In addition to making our 3d textures "seamless textures and tileable textures ", we have used photo editing techniques to virtually eliminate the appearance of repeated patterns. In other words, the tileable textures look just as nice when they are applied. In this website, we have made it possible for you to see the results by scrolling your mouse over the thumbnail images of the 3d texture collections in order to view the seamless textures in an actual illustration. This way you know exactly what you are purchasing, and there are no surprises. What you see is what you get.

B. "ump-teen million textures all on one CD" - As we know from our own rendering experiences (you probably know as well), it can really be frustrating to purchase one of these texture collections and come to find out that you can only use about 5 or 10 textures in the whole set. All of a sudden you realize that you have purchased a CD full of useless images. In this case, we at Archifx 3D Studios share the same sentiments as the late, great architect Mies Van Der Rohe: "Less is More". No we don't boast of having thousands of textures in a single collection, and this is because we at Archifx 3D Studios have a commitment to "quality rather than quantity". Every texture in our collections is useful, and they are essential building materials for the architectural illustrator.
