Hey New to the Forums UV question

Stevor1984

I was modeling this guy and am currently UVing him in Maya 7.0 I wanted to know if any of you guys could give me some tips on how to UV him. I have never modeled anything hard than a box, tree, and fire ring. I know there has to be some good tips to UVing this guy fast, and I also wanted to know if I have to UV each arm or if I can just mirror the UV's and if I can how?

Here is the model [image]http://s11.photobucket.com/albums/a197/Stevor1984/?action=view&current=LowKard.jpg[/image]

Have a think about the textures - is he wearing clothes? I normally place my UV seams in the same place that seams are on clothing. The inside of the legs, the inside of the arms etc.
