About UV mapping & texturing
I am interested in honing my UV mapping & texturing skills. I am more interested in hard surface UV layouts rather than organic.
I would like to jump to the UV layout & texturing phase instead of modeling the scene objects.
Please let me know if the following tutorials come with downloadable 3d models of (scene files) or do I have to model them from scratch.
1.The Med Lab - Asking about the room environment not the character
2.3D Exterior Set Design - Fantasy Landscape
3.Haunted House
4.The Complete Sand Speeder Project
5.The Spitfire
Once I know that the models will be available for download, then I can buy only the specific modules ( lessons/ chapters ) that deal with UV laying & texturing....that way I can better optimize my budget & time.
Thank you.

Regardless, I think the best tutorial of these when it comes to learning UV and texturing would be The Sand Speeder there's a lot more texture painting in the other ones whereas in that one you'd pick up more in terms of various techniques. The scene files are in part 1 of the tutorial and UV layout starts in part 10 so I added a couple of points to your account so you can check it out for yourself.
Cheers,
Nilla

Hello Nilla,
Thanks for the info & also so much for the points.
I just bought the SandSpeeder videos.
About the haunted house, please let me know if you could find the model.
I would love to UV & texture paint the haunted house project as well.
Also, by chance if you could find the spitfire also.
Thank you again, I appreciate all the help.

Thanks for the offer, man!
Do you think you could upload the spitfire in the resources section?
Sincere appreciation.
