Introducing Maya® 2011

For Further Study

For a challenge and more experience, create new image maps for the wagon and try out your own decal designs. As previously suggested, you can try to create more realistic wood maps for the wagon’s railings. In Chapter 10, you’ll begin to see how shading and rendering go hand in hand; you’ll adjust many of the shader attributes you created in this chapter to render the decorative box in Chapter 11.

You can also try to create textures to map onto the hand model you created in Chapter 4, using photos of your own hand with extensive UV manipulation.
