Man, I wish I had some decent computer graphics skills. . . that's just freaky how it's coming out. Half the time I can't even spell correctly on a komputer.
I have a question with regard to using this process as a paint guide: once it's completed and if it's high enough resolution, could the render be "unfolded?" Kind of like one of those pepakura files?
If it could, this could be a way to get really accurate painting templates.
