its cool to hear so many likes the texturing of my object.
Because this is one of the first times i try to texture organic objects!!! i failed a few times before to texture organic models!!

if you see my textures its nothing special!! its just a green texture with some blue and light-green lines i made with the paintbrushtool and darken up some areas with the burntool ( im talking about photoshop now )

@ozwolf: im not sure if the methode i am using is the best.
I am breaking the model into different parts and then i make a UV from those parts!!! the leg i created is a cylindrical UV while the foot is a planner UV!!! maybe you should also break up your model in parts and then UV each part one by one!!!

the texture i have attached with this post is the texture for the feet!! as you can see....its nothing special!!

PS. took me 15 minutes to type this message :P and i don't even know if this is understandable!!!

and the bump map for the feet!! nothing special either!! i also added a procedural layer for the bump!!

little update on the head!! he/she is not looking realy scary at the moment but i first will model him/her in a neutral mood!!
and who said that dinosaurs were always looking mad?? :)

im not 100% happy with the noseholes yet!! think it needs more detail around there!!

Looks very good! Where did you find such a close up of your dinosaurs head? I looked for a brontosaurus and i couldn't find anything as good as that.

thanks for showing us the uv maps, i think i now know how i would do it.

Your model is coming along great, i will have to work extra hard to try and beat you :D!

started texturing the head!!! very hard to let it looks like realistic!!
also planned to give the neck and lower body some redish color because i dont wanna have a completely green dinosaur!!!
also is 'blades' on his head are going to be a little bit red...im not sure if that will look good, but i will see :)

hope you guys like the texture so far!!
( dont have a bump map yet. Only a procedural map )

pfew....texturing the head is done!!! i did SOOOOO much testrenders i am sick of it at the moment :)

well here is the result!! next step is going to make the teeth and tongue!!! c&c welcome offcourse!!

is their an upload error??? i attached an image but it doesn't show up!!!! well i will try later to attach again!!!

LOL the picture i attached was a bmp file while i thought it was a jpg file :) mmh stupid me!! well another try to upload!!!

u r going good guns man!!! Keep it up!:tup:

o and the edges around the eye are too sharp. I think...

hehe yeah thats because i forgot to subpatch the eyes :)
updates coming soon

My only suggestion is to give him an eye lid. :)

Keep it up!

sometime you have a days, everything you are doing goes wrong!! thats happening to me today :(

i cant seem to get the inner mouth look good and also i am not happy about the mouth corner!!! spend a few (!) hours on it but dont have many progress!!!

i brighten the image a little bit up because it was a little bit dark!!
hope you guys can give me some good tips for the mouthcorner and the inner mouth!!! ( texture for the mouth is not fitting the texture inside the mouth, i will fix that ). and he needs some teeth but they are coming soon to!!

im happy we have 2 months for this one, otherwise i never get this one finished :P

@ kinley: he actually does have some eye lids...but they are wide open for the neutral look!!! when all is done i will close them a little bit for the more dangerous look!!
thank you for the tip though!!

well... i am going to get some sleep now and hope tomorrow i will have a better day :)

wow its lookimng great well done.
the only thing i'd do is make the inner mouth a little more pinkish like the corners of the mouth it looks a little too red at the moment. other than that its all good :)
