Back at DAZ<\/a>, they have been running something they call Mars Madness, which is fun. New items are released at a 75% discount and all stores are having huge sales. Among the coolest items so far was the V4 Archer outfit by Bobbie25, and there was a thread in the forum for us noobs making texture mods to that, so I could not\u00a0resist.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

So, this is the texture map grid that you can download from DAZ for free for those pants. Remember, I will do this my way<\/em>, not the way the pros might do it.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

So I opened it up in Pixelmator<\/a> and made it a mask.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Now I created a document in OmniGraffle<\/a> 3000×3000 pixels and added the mask to it, at top level.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Here is the working window in OmniGraffle, click it for a blown up view.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Now I started FilterForge<\/a> to make some textures. These might not look terrible great as they are shrunken down to fit here. But here is a texture map.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And a bump map.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I also made a few textures that I then run my edge tear filter on, to make patches. One in leather,<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

and one in canvas.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Now in OmniGraffle, I added the texture and placed the patches on the pants.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

So, how will this look? Stay tuned.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
