Tattoo - 3d Painting

by Chris · in Artist Corner · 04/26/2004 (1:55 pm) · 6 replies

Has any one used tattoo? I'm having some truble getting it to paint on my models, and I was wondering if anyone had any experience with it. Basicly, I can paint just fine on the example model, and on planes, but not any of my box models. Anyone know about this?

Well, I got it fixed. I wasn't saving texture cordinates for the model, which is apperently needed by tatoo. Should have known. I actually really like it.

Yep, you have to UV wrap it first. Great program huh? I love it, and way cheaper than the other 3d painters. I like making models in Wings3D and uvmapping there. I then save as 3ds to put into other programs. I usually texture in paintshop pro and then touch up texture seams in Tattoo. I also like doin eyes and eybrows, lips and ears in Tattoo. Sometimes it's hard to get lined up right otherwise. then i can go back to Paintshop pro and finish it off.
