UV Mapping

In order to prepare for the lesson on UV mapping, I did a short exercise myself experimenting with planar mapping using a rainbow target I quickly made in Photoshop.

During the lesson itself we were taught more basics of UV mapping, using a model made by the tutor.

I felt like I needed to learn more, so I did some practice by myself after the lesson. I modelled a fish quickly in Maya and painted a texture map in Photoshop to go with it. Although the model and colours are a little rushed and basic, it definitely benefitted my learning.
