Looks OK to me, you do need to smooth the mesh (3button) to get the best results, if you are getting the same problem delete the shader and start again..............dave

Edit:the seam problem is because you have your UVs flipped and there was a seam that was not stitched

Would you mind if I download this mesh to lend some crits? I will have to edit the mesh though. Thought I would ask before I went crazy with your mesh. user added image

If not, I can try a paint-over.

If I may lend an opinion. The anatomy from the first post on this thread was far closer to the female anatomy than it is now.

The rib cage is far too wide and should not be wider than the hips/pelvis. Ive attached one of my reference images from 3d SK complete with my own underwear range...that should help - I hope you can see the immediate differences

Ozgalis dont be scarred to do your UVs again, use the UV plugin that comes with maya 2010 and upwards also works with maya 2009, make like a lot easer.................dave

Hey, cool. Will download it and give it a play. The topology would probably need a re-work, but that's up to you.

Getting my new monitor tomorrow or Wednesday, then will have a tweak. Monitor got dropped, heartbreaking! lol.

Switched my small desk out for a table, decided I could do this without unplugging everything.... Logic win! Placed the monitor on the table, reached under to pull the system forward.... *crash* :o

It was a HP monitor 25"! lol. Getting a new 28" user added image

@Maya, hahah oh man that sucks, you getting another HP? and looks like your uping the size a bit lol. I have a samsung 27 LED I LOVE it.

@dave awesome thanks man, going to check it out hopefully in the next few hours. Trying to help my buddy with a logo...I have only done like 2 logos before and that was my first year in school...so should be interesting

Also I was looking around and it seems a lot of people attach the arms and legs to the torso in the UV map, is this something I should practice? instead of having the torso, arms legs, hands, and feet separate?
