Texture Painting - Digital Art Practice Week 3

 

This week I learned the basics of texture painting and the process that goes into generating ideas for the design. I never used to do reference boards such these before, but I now see the value in using one.

For my reference board, I focused on getting only relevant references. I picked out specific parts of each reference I wanted to use and explained my processes.

I did some sample texture studies from the photographs to get a feel on the kinds of colors I would expect to use. 

 I did a basic texture paint to figure out the process. I realised here that I would need to adjust my workflow, to include more layers, as well as better selections. My UV map is also not optimal, and I will produce a better one next week.

I exported the map to 3dsmax to see how it would look like, and was satisfied with the result.
