Hello people, I have just finished my Liv Tyler model (only head, look WIP) and i start texturing now, i did unwrap (see pic) and i have no intersections! now i am going to paint a texture, here i need your help, how and where do i find skin textures??? for reference, it's not a rusty metal that you can find on every 3dsite...

And second the texture size i"m going to make is 15000x9000!!!
Is this to big???

Thanks for everybody who will help me (the big dummy)

Firstly, 15000x9000 is probably far too big, unless this is going to be screened on IMAX or something ;)

As for reference, just take your own pics - the ones online are generally not very good quality, or hi-res enough for using as textures.

not IMAX!!! BUT 35mm anamorphic!!!:) (so I gonna take my first oscar)
1500x9000 is the footage with all layers i going to work, not a end texture, the end texture is going to be 6000x4000 targa
(its just to easy to work in photoshop with big resolution and lot of layers, and in the end just flatten, and save as targa map for max
and for "just take your own pics" i got no camera hehe....

Hmmmm.... no camera does put you in a tricky situation :sad:

I'm sure you could find some reference online... try looking through photography site or something like that :)

Firstly: you must install FaceGen or Di-o matic facial studio
after install:

run photoshop -....copy-paste....copy-paste..... :)

Hi IT (BADBOY BADBOY WHAT YOU GONNA DO? WHAT YOU GONNA DO WHEN WHEY COME FOR YOU! :beer:

I got the textures from facial studio and I know about textures the only problem is , the textures are low resolution (2000x1000)and quality is very bad

well, why not look at the textures, and then from it draw ur own? oh, nevermind it'll take u over a year to make it real like that.

just go to ur digital store, like FutureShop or Best Buy, and buy an ok Digital Camera. take pics of urself in the highest rez the toy'll go, & import to photoshop and screw around. then just return the camera. excuse=It didnt take the "good side" of me! :D

peace
