I was crusing down the Information Superhighway (remember that one folks?) and stopped by one of my fave links which pointed me to the link above.

It's a low polygon modeling tutorial, and the artist (Ben Mathis) also shows how he textured his creation. Page 2 has a neat trick for skin tones and variations there of.

Gonna try this for some Poser Textures and thought I pass this one on!

Enjoy.

Love that trick with the multi coloured clouds...will have to try that to add tonal qualities to some "flat" skin areas.

Hey, not only does that texture trick look good, but his modelling techniques seem like a great way to model that doesn't get the "cartoony" look box modelling can get. Looks like something I need to try...

3dtotal is a great site, and for architectural textures http://home.zonnet.nl/textures12/ is the place to go

You can see the results for yourself. The same texture was used, with a copy using the technique on it.

Both Victoria's were set to a white base, then had textures applied, rendered in Poser 5, production setting, most options checked. (I should have done this in a more 'scientific" way, and noted everything I did, but Poser is play!)
No bump maps applied and I used RYM's Light set (see link above).

Had to zap the image, forgot to set a FLAG. Here it it properly tagged.
