peach/apricot texture/images

[winberg]

Hi I have a job were I need to make some illustrations of peaches/apricots.
The problem is that these fruits are out of season, and I can not go and buy them in the shops (norway)..
So my question is if there are any of you that have some high res digital images, so I can use them for textures
I am willing to pay for them, or pheraps trade them for some models or something..

I saw a peach render a while ago which was quite good. The guy who did it used vrayfur to simulate the peachy thingy on the surface and it ended quite convincing. Only with texture maps the result hadn´t been as good. Unfortunately i can´t find that render and i don´t even know if it was on this forum

I'd say you refer to this
There is some info on page 5 of how it was done (he says it took him only 1h to do each pic )

Thanks for replys, just to clearify: I have no problems making a peach..But I have no good reference pictures for the textures for the peach...And the problems is that I can not get hold of peaches in the stores right now..

So If anybody have som lying around...give me a wink

Lots of big pictures here of both apricots and peaches, but not that great quality.
