Re: pilot chick with a nose problem.
Awesomely stylish model! However, some areas of the model are very dense, such as the hands, the face, the boots and even the detailed nipples. In comparison, the pants are painfully lowpoly. I think they really need more polygons, especially in the crotch area, because what you have here might not deform well in… -
Re: pilot chick with a nose problem.
thanks for the positive response, glad so many like it! here's the map: i used roadkill to cut it up & stuff, and then the relax tools in max. thanks for the tips everybody i will try them as soon as i have the time! conte, i don't even know what ringloops are. care to explain? again, thanks everyone for the tips! -
Re: pilot chick with a nose problem.
cut the nose in half vertically and mirror just the nose, on the unwrap the uvs will fill the gap left by the missing half and give you little distortion -
Re: pilot chick with a nose problem.
Love the design, her construction is awesome, good luck on the distortion free nose... You might be able to pull the nostrils back into the cheeks as they can hide some distortion better then the nose will. You'll never get rid of distortion you can only hope to hide it well. -
Re: pilot chick with a nose problem.
I usually just use the relax feature that max has or use uvhelp to relax it and then just tweak it off what it gives me. There will always be distortion but you should be able to get lower distortion than what you have right now. -
Re: pilot chick with a nose problem.
As mentioned earlier it would be easier to help you if you post the uvmap for us to look at. In cases like this i steal pixel density from the areas around, from the nose and bridge of the nose, this usually works okay. -

Oh dear, that's one of the coolest designs I've seen in quite a while [ QUOTE ] [...] there will be stretching somewhere any way you do it because of the shape extruding out [/ QUOTE ] I think we all see the solution to this problem. Humans need to stop having noses. -
Re: pilot chick with a nose problem.
Unless you mirror the face(only unwrap on side then mirror) you're never going to get a perfect distortion free unwrap on a nose, it really isnt posible, there will be stretching somewhere any way you do it because of the shape extruding out -
Re: pilot chick with a nose problem.
From the close up you posted it looks like your unwrap doesn't match the model very well. You should always try to keep things 1 to 1 as much as possible or you'll get distortion and uneven distribution of detail. If you applied a planar uv from the front of the head to the front of the ears you should get a better idea of…
