I've been looking for a seam matching tutorial and i don't find.
Does anyone know where I can find it or post a fast tuto? XD

Thanks~

Hi Mandy,
I am a skins designer, and whilst I don't have a tutorial, what I do in matching seams, is copy a bit of skin from one side of the seam, paste/flip it and place it on the other. While this still does not get me a totally seamless look, and still requires further work, it does help me very much in ensuring that colors match up perfectly.

If you are using Chip's templates like I do (thanks Chip!!! ), enabling the edge matching guide will assist you in getting a strip of the texture from the very edge of the seam and pasting it on the other side.

I hope this is clear.
