Texture Sheets!

I’ve been calling my Howl’s Moving Castle a Zulu South African adaptation as Sophie would be from the Zulu Kingdom and the majority of the story set there.  However I chose Michael, Howl’s assistant, to be from the Ndebele nation (he shows it with the signature beaded bands he wears).  Howl himself has fashion influence from both groups, showing his wayward nature.

Some of Boelix the Terrible’s texture sheets (why not?).

He has two more slightly different textures for his teeth, to add a touch of variety, and some shine/bump maps I didn’t include. Unlike Sir Oddclaw, I mirrored his texture across a vertical axis - meaning his texture is perfectly symmetrical from left to right. Also, this is why only half of his body appears on the UV maps.

The most challenging part of painting his texture was making sure no detail drew the viewer’s attention to the fact the image is mirrored, and, of course, hiding his seams.

Also...His irises are like pineapple rings.
