In this entertaining project for beginners in organic modeling we will create The Oliphant from The Lord of The Rings Movies.

We then move on to laying out flat UV's for the Oliphant in Maya. Working in the UV texture editor you'll learn the techniques for creating UV sets, unwrapping UV's, and different tools like move and sew. The UV's for the different parts of the model are then aligned and combined to create a complete final UV map.
The UV map is exported to Photoshop for texture painting. During this section of the tutorial you'll learn how to create color, bump and specular maps for organic characters by using a number of different tools and working in layers. We make a color map for the elephant skin with a high level of variation and we also create a bump map to make our model more realistic and get the distinct skin folds and imperfections that elephant skin would have. Another thing you'll see is how to make gold paint and a satin material using many different brushes and painting techniques.
The textures are brought back into Maya and we add some basic lights and a specular map to control where on the Oliphant and saddle we want the specular highlights to appear.
