Aircraft Scrapyard Reference Pack
A collection of over 1,000 photos and cutouts captured during a visit to an aircraft scrapyard. There is a focus on weathered metal surfaces, wreckage, structural details, and parts from dozens of abandoned aircraft dating from the 1950s-1980s. Also included are nearly 200 (roughly masked) cutout images focusing on decals, stencils, debris, and other elements of mixed quality extracted from the source images.
Several photos (appx. 120 in total) were included in my previously released TextureHunt Collection, particularly with regards to surfaces and object details. However, the majority of images in this pack were previously unreleased and are more useful for surface reference, inspiration, or photo-bashing. Images were captured with Canon T3i and resolution is approximately 18MP (~5200x3100px), with a few exceptions for some cropped images. The contents are organized as follows:
