The Dragon texturing tutorial will take you into the world of creating a flat workable UV map and then adding colour and texture to bring it to life. We will cover many different UV mapping techniques like planar map and automatic mapping as well as tools like cut and sew UV's. Once our UV map is finished we will import a UV snap shot into a paint program like Photoshop to learn how to hand-paint our textures using a variety of options including using layers and filters to achive a nice organic tone. We will also create a color map and bump map, as well as a specular map, and even play with a transparency map for the wings.
