Texturing a MH character in Blender

Postby SaltyCowdawg » Mon Sep 01, 2014 5:48 pm

Hi folks,

Based on a few questions I've seen asked on this forum about texturing a MH character in blender I went ahead and documented my workflow in the form of a four part series. It can be found here: http://3d-art.berghold.net/?page_id=22

Commentary and recommendations are welcome.

GREAT!! We will promote it tomorrow on our social networks (today is dedicated to the awesome work of dGordillo here: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=11008&p=25177#p25177).
Thank you very much!

I've to look at it more in depth, but I feel something is missed in the hair transparency...

Alpha masking must be done at the end of the process. The unmasked glossy probably ruin the alpha.
