1	Ugly Character UV Map Tutorial	279
2	digital hair and painterly shader writing	267
3	Putting a label on a bottle I had to do some experimenting to get this working, so why not share that knowledge with all of you?	151
4	Texture Map NURBS Dragon In this section, I would like to use Deep Paint 3D to help me to indicate the location of UV on the NURBS surfaces. But 3D Paint package only recognizes polygons with UV. So, we need to convert NURBS to polygon, then export the polygons to 3D paint	187
5	Unreal Tournament Skinning	166
6	How to create a realistic looking turtle - Part 2 With the second part of the tutorial (the first one was about the modelling) I will explain how to make a seamless texture map using a marvellous tool that you can find in Maya: the Convert to File Texture (Convert to Solid Texture in Maya 2.5).	184
7	Layered Texture Tutorial In this tutorial you will learn how to use the alpha channel of your projected image to "stencil" your image over/under other images on your geometry with the use of a layered shader.	159
8	Seamless texturing: Part 3 of Creating a realistic looking turtle This time I will first explain a few useful tricks to seamless texture your models and then we will see how to do to make the texture maps look realistic. Since I will refer to examples and tecniques I explained in the other two tutorials	151
9	Texturing Polygons Texturing Polygons UV Mapping and using Photoshop to create textures	191
10	UV 101 For beginners, UV mapping has always been a challenging part of the modeling/texturing process. Although the theory is rather simple (think of how you would ‘unwrap’ the earth to create a flat map of it) it seems that no software package offers an ideal intuitive solution to performing UV mapping.	206
11	Normal Mapping: Theory and Practice This tutorial is intended to describe some basic ideas about normal mapping and how to implement this technique in Maya.	166
12	Creating Clouds in Maya using Particle Clouds Creating Clouds in Maya using Particle Clouds.	217
13	Raytrace Shadows with Transparent Texture Files	247
14	stool-polygon texturing This tutorial goes through in detail the UV texture mapping process in maya. This tutorial goes through in detail the UV texture mapping process in maya.	186
15	Photographing for Textures Lately Ive stumbled across self-made textures of a dedicated hobbyist photographer. Most of his textures lacked the features a good diffuse texture has. So I decided to make a tutorial for everybody out there whos interested in how to photograph usable diffuse textures.	167
16	How the image Male Green Frog was made in Maya What I'm going to do, is trying to show you the main steps of how I've made my "Male Green Frog".	176
