INTRODUCTION TO SPECIALIST PATHWAY

I finished helmet design I am showing here with out texture 

From now I am doing texture mapping . In maya its UV Texture editor. 

UV mapping 

UV mapping  is a process of projecting texture map onto a 3d object 

For UV mapping  the model need to unfold. Then take this unfold object to Photoshop and texture there. After that the texture map will take it into Maya then hyper shade  to he 3d model

In this picture the models are textured with UV map checker  This is for to check the texturing.If the mapping is not wright the box will not look perfect.










I made some research for uv mapping tutorials.
