When I first started making textures, every time I started with a model new to me I would go and look at existing textures in photoshop. I find it's much easier to understand that way then just by looking at the templates. In fact I still do that :) If you're going to be making Mike textures, I suggest you DL one of my Shades of Mike textures from my webpage. First off, you can look at the texture and see how it's laid out. And secondly, all those texture are ok to modify and distribute freely. Just don't sell em. :) That way you won't have to make the whole texture from scratch. Lyrra
