In their own words
ShareTextures
ShareTextures is a web library of free textures, 3D models, atlases, and other digital assets. Its About page lists more than 1,600 textures, 250 3D models, and 50 atlases. Visitors can download selected assets without registration or payment, at resolutions up to 4K. The Free asset library costs nothing, and listed formats include BLEND and FBX. ShareTextures describes downloads as CC0, while its license page specifies a custom CC0 license: personal and commercial use is allowed without attribution, but redistribution on other websites and embedding downloads in third-party apps require written permission. A Blender add-on supports browsing, previews, drag-and-drop placement, 1K–4K resolution choices, automatic shader nodes, catalogs, and tags. Access is offered through Patreon or a one-time purchase, with lifetime access and free updates for the one-time option. An Unreal Engine plugin creates physically based materials with one-click import and automatic material graph setup, with 1K, 2K, and 4K options through the Epic Games/FAB Marketplace.
