    Jagged selection?

    Growing error?

    I have a duplicate of my character model. When I try to scale the duplicate, it doesn't scale evenly. My duplicate is placed inside of the original, and I'm trying to grow the duplicate around the original. It's seemingly scaling upward, though. Instead of, for instance, the arm scaling around...

    Photoshop vs Blender vs 3D Coat: Texturing

    I've been looking for a way to do some simple texturing on store bought or original models. I'm not really into PBR as I usually postwork my finished art for an illustrative look.
