Painting obsidian...I'm trying it on my Smoke Elemental for one of the pieces, my suggestion is to only paint whatever your engine will not be able to handle.

Hey guys I am currently working on this low poly pigeon for a mobile game demo and trying to improve the painted style for the game. If any of you guys could give me some critique, advice, or anything to help with hand painting small (512x512 or 256x256) textures, I would very much appreciate it. Thanks! (yes I know I need…

I've been modeling in 3dsmax and for what I'm working on, I need to use the ink and paint material. I've placed an omni light in the scene with shadows ticked on and I've noticed the objects aren't casting shadows onto one another and only seem to be affected locally (the only shadows that exist on the objects are shadows…
I know there is a ID map in substance painter, but it seems like I have to paint whole mesh only on a single texture... am I missing something????? How can I paint a mesh with multiple parts? ( one basecolor texture for head part, and another for body part.. etc..)
