Unhatched - Beak texture

I finally got round to creating a finished beak texture for the bird in 'Unhatched'. This has taken me longer than it should have as I was so busy juggling all the work I had to do. I did apologise to Tom for the slow delivery and he said it was ok, although I still felt bad. Here is the finished beak, and it has taken quite a while to get right because of stretching within the UVs. I guess this is why Tom passed it onto me to get done, he was having trouble and it was quite tedious getting it right because of stretched UVs. I finally managed to get a decent look and added a simple border colour to match other parts of the texture. I also asked Tom what he thought and he said it was great, so all is well in the end.

Unhatched - Bird Beak

I was asked by Tom (director of 'Unhatched') if I could make a beak texture for his character model as he was having trouble with it. I said sure and would be glad to help. When I opened up Maya and Photoshop, and having everything set up I began painting an initial area for the mouth but found this to be quite troublesome. This is down to the fact there is stretching occurring in the UVs which is causing some serious problem. I suspect this is why Tom asked me as he was having trouble. I will get this done but it is quite tedious getting this right.
