The texture of the main character has been final for some time now, time to write about it!
The texture was done in bodypaint and photoshop. The useage of bodypaint was fantastic! The amount of precise detail in the texture was easy to achieve compared to UV layout in photoshop. I also got a lot of illusions to geometry that isn't really there. I'm glad i took the time to learn this new texture program as it really paid of. I also did a gradient to the texture depending on what would be damaged to the sunlight. Meaning that red would become slightly more orange in "sun" parts and so on. I also made the texture choice towards the large parent robot that this one is recycled by. So they would match. I also made different tests on how to make the texture better. Simply painting and tweaking colors in photshop. Then use the reference to make it right in the program. If there was anything I would do different, it would be to use bodypaint on all the other characters as-well.
