Re: quick question, flatten uvs in maya

Re: Workflow question: generating height/normal before Substance
I sorta agree about manual craftsmanship , Designer included . Every time I do a material in Designer I know they are paying me for gaps and mistakes of scanning contractors .

WIP – Chemical / Paint Waste Disposal Bin (Practice Prop)
Hey everyone, I’ve started working on a new practice prop. Its a chemical/paint waste disposal bin. I found this one and thought it would be a great study piece because it has a lot of subtle form changes, surface damage, and material storytelling.
