So I have modeled and detailed a head and now I need to texture it. I have watched many tutorials on youtube and other sites, but can't figure out exactly how to do it. The problem is that I can't use the ZProject brush, because I don't have matching reference images. Could anyone point me a good technique to use in this case?
I have tried to match the reference with my model using liquify in photoshop, but it's impossible since I can't see my model underneath, just the ref. image and therefore I can't match it exactly.
Other method that I can think of (and that I have tried but gave up) was using the zproject brush to paint from different places of the ref. image. Seems too unaccurate and I think there must be a better way.
I'd greatly appreciate any advice on this. Thanks!!
