Hey everyone here on Polycount this is my first post on the website. This is also my first model that Ive created outside of school. I am about to try and start to texture it and it seems like a pretty daunting task so any tips on how to texturing and uv map would be really great , thanks.

Hey - Not to be difficult, but you should probably work on it a little before looking for input. Maybe you could include your reference as well. That way we can at least know where you're coming from.

hi tim welcome on board

a fast websearch should help you about uv mapping and texturing for games.

Better ask specific questions about problems you face on the way


btw the model has interesting shapes. Looking for more

Here are my reference images, i will post more when i have textured it.

I finished my texture and Lighting today after working all weekend on it. I'm just wondering what everyone thinks about the set up. This was my first time with textures and bump maps.

yo this is bad!
lol joking this is awesome
like i said it looks like concept art (which is a good thing i belive)

for your first time...? looks pretty darn good considering that! makes me think of a 1999 video game model, or in game rendered movie. did you just take some pics you found on the net, edit them and slap em over the uv?

TimPogson

I didn't just take pics from the net, I grabbed source textures from CG textures and edited them in photoshop and put them on my ship.
