Pausing on the animation a bit I thought I\u2019d go back and work on the textures. Being a big fan of the Ambient Occlusion goddess but not of the extra long rendering times I did Amb Oc render maps for the boy\u2019s body and head which I can use in a texture.<\/p>\n

\n‘Roadkill’ was extremely helpful when unwrapping the UVs – last time i tried to do it manually it took me several more days. It does require some thought out seam selection but I didn\u2019t have to deal with much point moving except for the hair.<\/p>\n

I did attempt to paint the textures in Painter first, but they just looked dirty and rough. So I made several copies of the amb oc render map layer in photoshop and tried various filters which i multiplied with a block colour layer, The one used here is a chalk and charcoal filter with coloured pencil (inverted) for the darker parts. It seems to work well for the clothes, hair and face. For the hands I used the underpainting filter.<\/p>\n

\nThis is the final result, after adding a few touches of colour for the cheeks, lips, ears and eyebrows. A few problems are the eyelids which look horrible when shut, and also the low res that the render maps were produced. Seems that 512\u00d7512 were not enough and they come out pixellated though you can’t really see in the render region. Perhaps I will do another one for closeups of the face. There are a few details that need tweaking on the painted textures, seams especially, but overall I\u2019m very happy with the result, the textures make the model look so much better!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
