Barrel textures

Barrel textures 

I started this task not knowing a thing about texturing and was the first time I've used Photoshop to texture a model and found it quite difficult at first.

I started out by looking at what type of art style I would like to pursue, I decided to go with a old retro crash bandicoot crate.

I experimented with a the brushed in Photoshop to see what effect they could give it the barrel to make it look spray painted as a starting point to texturing.

I then went into Google and found a TNT logo and cropped it to fit it onto the barrel in the way I liked.

After that I copied it into my barrel layers we did with Chris and made the logo smaller to the appropriate size and placed it around the barrel in the repeated pattern I wanted.





These are the stages I went through starting with Chris texture experimenting and ending with my final barrel texture.

I think this barrel worked well because it has the same style of the retro crash bandicoot crates I was trying to relate them to.
