Apply a texture or pattern on a "sharp" curved surface


Recommended Posts

Hello.  I need help with adding a hex pattern.  I have version 4.9.37.

When ever I try to add a hex pattern over a "sharp" curved I get a weird artifact at the sharp bend.  See attracted picture.  How can I add a more uniformed pattern to a surface with a sharper curve.

Sorry if this is a noob question.

Thanks

Pete

Hello. Thanks for the info.  I am not too familiar with UVs and stuff.  I mostly use 3Dcoat for 3d printed models.  So I was able to retopo the one section of my model.  Than bake with normal map.  Than I was able to paint the texture I want on to "baked" layer.  Now how can I take that texture and make it into a sculpted texture in my model? I want that texture on my model so I can 3D print it.

 

Thanks

Pete
