Try looking into UV mapping in the help files, I'd use planar mapping Coupled with moving and sewing, but I guess you dont know what that really means

If the stuff in the helpfiles doesn't er, help then you may like the tute that Mike has done on the topic. Check it out here: Mike's UV mapping tutorial
There's also a really good one on texturing a 3 legged stool, complete with the rungs that go from leg to leg. You'll find it here: http://www.ramyhanna.com/texturing/p...utorial01.html For what it's worth, I'd be inclined to cylindrical map each of the fingers one-by one before perhaps automatic mapping the palm itself. Just depends on the topology of the hand I guess. Just this week on another forum we were discussing the lack of a couple of tools that would make some UV mapping operations much easier. Of notable concern was the inability to scale UVs by an exact, numerical figure. Long story short, after playing around capturing the commands echoed in the script editor and reviewing a text I've got on MEL, the following script was developed. Code:

i try the rihana tut after school, it looked very nice:D
, but i don't know how to add scripts in maya... |
That's cool, it's very easy.
======= a. Window->GeneralEditors->Script Editor b) Select all the text of the script and hit Ctrl-Ins c) Paste it into the bottom pane of the editor Shft-Ins d) select all of the text then drag it up to the shelf with the middle button. Notes: 1) The icon in the bottom right of the screen will do step (a). 2) You don't need to do step (d), You can just goto Script->Execute 3) Try Help->MayaHelp. Search for shelves. That should help you out a bit. Simon |

Sweet! Thanks for the script, I'm gonna have to try that out soon.
