Title: Blender 101 – Blender 321: Character UV Mapping

Info:

We look at some of the unique issues regarding UV mapping an organic model like a character. We use Blender’s UV mapping tools to create an organized UV map that can be exported to external paint programs like Photoshop or GIMP for texturing. In addition, we bake normal and ambient occlusion maps to capture the high resolution detail of the original sculpt.
