New W.I.P: Christmas Wood Train
I had paused it (something I do a lot ) after realize I have to paint seven textures.

How it started in November:




Late in November it was unwrapped. I did that for every object then I got initially 32 materials/uvs which at the end I grouped then by wagons.
The checker texture helped me to keep the UVs scale similar. Then after I combine the objects to get the only one UV texture I was able to normalise the sizes, arranje the islands (pack) and scale to fit in the "cell":


I used vertex colours to help me with the solid colours I needed in the base colour texture.
This weekend I get back to paint the base color textures in Gimp. For the other maps I will use Substance Painter:


There are still missing elements which I should model/add at the end.
