In this DVD, Ian textures and completes the game cinematic character he
modeled in Character Modeling for Production. In this lecture, he shows
different techniques to UV map objects of various complexities quickly
and efficiently using 3ds Max's UV tools and DeepUV. Ian covers both
hand-painted and image-based methods to create textures for the
character. From there he uses various ZBrush plugins to both block-in
and finalize textures and he uses BodyPaint to fix seams and to begin
new textures. Ian demonstrates a variety of other techniques
incorporated in the Max > ZBrush > BodyPaint pipeline and shows
you how to enhance the hair created in his first DVD, and take it to a
more finalized level. Finally, Ian shows how you can reuse your rigs
from character to character using Biped, and how to use Adobe Photoshop®
to add an extra level of professionalism to your final models before
submitting them to a client. In this DVD Ian uses: Max, DeepUV,
PolyBoost, ZBrush, ZappLink, Zmapper, BodyPaint and Adobe Photoshop®.
