been working on this the past few days, managed to complete the highpoly model. Actually this was done 2 days ago I think, I just never made the post. Lowpoly is also very close to completion as of now, so all that really remains for this are UVs, bake and textures.
not a whole lot to say about this one, it's a pretty basic asset. The only real annoyance is that some of the backside/inside is visible thanks to the split. It's open just enough to be able to peek inside so I felt like there should be an inside (and there is), but I didn't put too much effort into it. It's also going to steal texture space from the outside so the whole texture is going to end up less sharp than I'd like, I hate it when that happens, but it is what it is.
I'm not sure how to texture this as of now, or more precisely, how it should look. My concept has this cool black and white theme split down the middle (kinda like a Batman Two Face costume), but the more I looked at jeans refs, the more I want to just do a classic regular blue jeans look, I feel like it's been a while since I did it. I know the default answer to issues like this is "why not both", so I'm not even going to ask hehe. Meh, I guess I'll figure something out.
