Well, since I haven't gotten any POV textures yet, I figured they
were few and far between. But here's some categories for
starters:
- Architecture (external of buildings, like stucco, cement, etc.)
- Insects (bug eyes, of course, wings)
- Mammals (fur)
- Fish (scales and stuff)
- Outside (asphalt pavement, cement roads, dirt, sand, etc.)
