Texture artist
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
A texture artist is an individual who develops textures for digital media, usually for video games, movies, web sites and television shows.[1][2] These textures can be in the form of 2D or (rarely) 3D art that may be overlaid onto a polygon mesh to create a realistic 3D model.
Texture artists often take advantage of web sites for the purposes of marketing their art and self-promotion of their skills with the goal of gaining employment from a professional game studio or to join a team working on a "mod" (modification) of an existing game in hopes of establishing industry or trade credentials .[3]
