Head texture attempt

[leigh]

Unless this model is for a game or something, you shouldn't be incorporating lighing shades into your colour map. This will then look odd when you place it into a properly lit environment in your software.

In terms of your unwrapping, you chose a very bad spot for the seams - how are you going to eliminate the seam running down the front of the face? Also, your textures are mirrored - never a good idea ;)

The green tones look really odd. You should have rather used pale shades of blue - I have yet to see a person with green in their skin unless they are seriously seasick :)

There should be NO black tones in skin. You would never seen black in skin the way you have put in on the lips and eyelids.

Overall, I also think it is a little too saturated - it is way too orangey.

the color is pretty obviously wrong. skin tends to look slightly pink instead of mad orange :D the green touches make him look like he decays :p

as for the shading.. what leigh said:bounce:

oOo...thanks for your points. :thumbsup:

I think my monitor is really calibrated wrong, the colours look and feel totally different on my friend's and school's computer. :mad:

For the greens on the head, i just over did it.
Wasn't consentrating on that part.
Anyways there is really some green under the hair of the head. Go have a look in the mirror, lift your hair and look closely at the skin under, a slight pale green can be seen. This cause it is not tan, like a sick person...

yeah...Good day!

Besides what has been said, always over-paint your texture edges, to avoid seams like the black one you have.

Keep it up, you're off to a good start!

Here is some texture reference from the Final Fantasy movie:

do you have a sample of a proper non game texture map that without lighting shades? leigh? i am really confuse with ya.

Look at the link I posted.

it still does a little bit of shadings, the corner of the eye, the cornor of the mouth. it is just not as obvious as like whole map is under shadings.

[EricChadwick]

Yeah. The idea is to remove as much shading as possible, so it won't "fight" with the scene lighting.
