Re: Any tips for normal mapping curved surface?
I checked your work to keep you honest, and there were some mistakes that I think were made that may have skewed your results towards your final conclusion. For one, you didn't actually bevel the edges, you just added loops and used edge smoothing to get a beveled look. However, if you actually use the bevel tool to… -
