[Tutorial] Diffuse and Specular Painting

OK, this video is unedited, and I tried to do as much as I could within my time frame. I was going for 1 hour, but I added in another 10 minutes of me just rendering it in crazy bump and such.

I've done alot more to it since I recorded the video though. Ideally I would have spent 2 hours on them.

Basically, theres no audio, no text, no nothing except the video. You also might want to play it in windows media player, and darken the video a bit, because some reason it came out brighter than it actually recorded as. Also, for some reason camtasia didn't record the top bars for my palettes in photoshop. No idea why.

Anyway, this video mainly shows my workflow and how I paint the diffuse and specular textures to make this:

Thread is fine. Carry on.

zeph, nice noticing of the sarcasm on your part, A+++++

Can this thread get some sticky? Just so it doesn't get lost in the sands of time.

Yeeeee...no.

Still :awesome:

No wut :(

Also, I think I might get into the habit of recording myself. I'm thinking of making pseudo "video classes" in parts so that people can learn too. I think such awesome things could come from the community if more people could paint textures.

That's a great idea; Just make sure you have a place to store all of those video files or your pc will lose space and fast. Unless of course you have some kind of super awesome compression method or something.
