Thanks for the responses! @Sean_EG The most important detail of what I'm going for are grooves to create the illusion of separate armor plates. I do in fact have nDo and am pleased with what it's capable of, but I'm not sure how to get a "negative" shape in it. Ndo is great for sculpting raised areas, but I haven't figured…
Humm... that looks promising Eric, but I think it might tile too often around the curls? You could also try Pipe Peel in TexTools http://www.renderhjs.net/textools/ It probably would of been easier to do the hair with rectangle splines, they create great UV's for this sort of thing.

Using something that is already…

Hey, I've done a lot of research into map creation for rendering skin, but still have a few questions I wanted to ask to clarify. Currently I've finished diffuse and displacement/bump maps based on xyz scans. I know that I need a gloss and a spec map which seem fairly straight forward to create in mari. One of the things…
