[Niosop]

I posted a video tutorial covering mesh retopology, UV unwrapping and xNormal texture baking in the resources section.

nice work niosop

 

so if i understand correctly the whole retopo part is dependent on creating that initial plane and removing its vertices?

[Niosop]

Yup. Or actually any object. You just need some other object. Placing an empty and adding verts to that might work as well, I have just always used a plane so that's what I'm used to.

 

I uploaded it to Vimeo then uploaded s slightly clearer version, so it'll be about an hour until vimeo posts it it looks like.
