Unwrapping a Mesh into a UV Texture in Blender
The first step towards building a workable UV texture for a Mesh in Blender.

Using Seams in a Mesh to Modify UV Texture Shapes in Blender
How to create more predictable, usable and manageable UV texture shapes by marking our own seams on our mesh in Blender.

Exporting Your UV Texture as an Image File in Blender
How to export your carefully mapped UV texture as an image file that you can edit outside of Blender.

Editing our UV Texture in Photoshop
One (easy) technique for editing our UV textures in Photoshop, in preparation for bringing them back in to Blender.

Importing a UV Texture into Blender
How to bring our Photoshopped texture back into Blender and (start to) apply it to our model.

Converting a UV Texture into a Material in Blender
How to finish setting up the render pipeline in Blender so that our UV texture will be the material that is rendered on our model in the final image.

Editing an Existing UV Texture in Photoshop and Blender
It turns out that we can edit our UV texture image in Photoshop and, with a single command, reload that image into Blender.

Starting an Armature in Blender
How to get started building an armature for a character in Blender.

Adding Bones to Your Armature
How to add bones to your armature so that the whole construction is a connected skeleton.

Continuing the Armature from a "Butt" Joint
How to add the hip joint from the "butt" (wide, base end) of the spine bone and connect things so that the skeleton will bend "normally"

Naming the Bones of Your Armature in Blender
How to name the bones of your armature predicatably so that we can assign groups of vertices to be moved by these bones.

Add Armature Bones in the 3rd Dimension in Blender
How to use a mouse focus trick to easily extrude a bone perpendicular to the rest of the armature skeleton (say, the foot).

Attach an Armature to a Model in Blender
How to attach the armature that you've constructed to a model (meshes only!) so that you can animate the model.

Multiple Vertex Groups in Blender
Can a vertex on a mesh be a member of more than one vertex group in Blender? Yes, and here's how.

Creating a Vertex Group in Blender
How to create a vertex group to assign to a particular armature bone (so that the bone will move the mesh!)

Adding an Armature in Blender
How to add a basic armature to a mesh-based model in Blender.

Applying a Simple Texture
