2 CREATE A GOOD MODEL
It doesn’t matter if you have amazing texturing skills if your model doesn’t look good, so make sure you have a realistic sculpt to work with. In my case I asked my talented friend Daniel Rodrigues to sculpt the cassowary for me. we worked together for a few weeks until we got the final model. I asked him to sculpt only the primary and secondary details since I was going to work on the high frequency details in Mari.
