Default Re: CG Galactica

Hello all,

Just wanted to post an update... I've kind of run into a bit of modeler's version of writer's block.

I've been kind of stuck on UV mapping in Lightwave. I was a bit spoiled with how easy it was in 3ds Max to UV mapp. Ligthwave is a bit more challenging and it's really worn me out.

I'm asking for some help from any of you that are experienced with Lightwave. I'm currently modeling a viper and I've come to the stage for texturing. I'm not sure if I should model in panels or texture them in.

Seems that lightwave does not like me modeling in panels. It makes the UV unwrapping a pan in the arss.

So I've lost a bit of my drive and mojo. Could really use some input.
