Hiya. This looks fun/scary.

You seem to have some holes in the mesh on the side of the chest and where the neck meets the shoulders. You’ll need to take your model resolution down a bit and see what’s going on there.

As for wings … well, it all depends what you want. You could use alphas or just paint and gouge out the detail you want. But insect wings are pretty fine, so that would be difficult. Another way is to remove the wings he does have and make some from scratch. The advantage of this is that you can make them evenly thin/flat with little effort. I attach a little ZScript that’ll show you one way of simply painting the wings you want, then turning them into 3D. You could then add them to your model using the Multi-Marker tool.

btw … I’m still learning how to do ZScripts, and this one picks the wrong material for some reason. Still, it’ll give you a few ideas I hope. I’d suggest you turn on ‘Show Actions’ (and maybe ‘& Notes’) and make Repeat Show Actions =2 and Replay Delay to the maximum. Otherwise it’s over in a flash. Oh, and if the recording seems to stop and there’s a little flashing red light in a box, just hit ‘Enter’ on your keyboard. Oh, and ignore where I add a texture at the end … I had a blonde moment. :smiley:

Thanx so much to take time to make a zscript !!
Know i know why this forum is so popular !! :slight_smile:
it will help me a lot !!

Go to tool-> Texture and there you can fix the uv seams automatically.
Hope it helps. I am a uv noob myself but that helped!

Nice model btw!

PS:Google for Insect Wings in the goggle ‘image’ section. You will see nice black & white insect wing samples on the first page. Then follow the zscript and you have ultra realistic wings.
