Try these steps to have the color/texture show up on your model: 1. Select the model. 2. Go up to the tab called "Shading" along the top and make sure you are in "Object" and not "World" or "Line Style" along the top of the window pane. 3. You should see a few nodes (rectangular/square boxes with several words/fields inside them) in the bottom window pane, one bigger one called Principled BSDF that is green in color along the top. 4. Click anywhere in the window pane with these nodes. 5. Press Shift+A, select Search, then type "image", and select "image texture". 6. You should now have a new node called 'Image Texture" that is orange in color along the top. 7. Click on the Open button inside this node, and navigate to the model folder with the .FBX, .PNG, and .PSD files. 8. Select the .PNG file. 9. Now click on the "Color" output field with the little yellow dot inside the Image Texture node, and drag it to the yellow "Base Color" input field of the Principled BSDF. The color should hopefully now show up! I hope that helps!

Go to Edit -> Preferences, then the Addons section, type "extra" in the search bar and activate Add Mesh: Extra Objects, then Save Preferences. Then you'll have the single vertex option.

I would say use an image editor like GIMP or Krita and just cut and paste all of your separate textures into one image file, then scale them so they fit inside a 2048x2048 map without overlapping. You'll also need to have your UV layout overlayed in this same file, so you can line up your textures to the model.

In the UV unwrap stage, when you unwrap the new hair you modeled, place the hair UV over where the original helmet UV was. Then, in Krita, just cover up the helmet colouring/texturing on the UV map, and paint in the hair part either in Krita or back in Blender. Hope that makes sense!

Try these steps to have the color/texture show up on your model: 1. Select the model. 2. Go up to the tab called "Shading" along the top. 3. You should see a few nodes (rectangular/square boxes with several words/fields inside them) in the bottom window pane, one bigger one called Principled BSDF that is green in color along the top. 4. Click anywhere in the window pane with these nodes. 5. Press Shift+A, select Search, then type "image", and select "image texture". 6. You should now have a new node called 'Image Texture" that is orange in color along the top. 7. Click on the Open button inside this node, and navigate to the Colette folder with the .FBX, .PNG, and .PSD files. 8. Select the .PNG file. 9. Now click on the "Color" output field with the little yellow dot inside the Image Texture node, and drag it to the yellow "Base Color" input field of the Principled BSDF. The color should hopefully now show up! I hope that helps!

You should definitely parent every object you make to the GEO collection. Ctrl+J joining your objects will depend. If you have made a helmet for instance, with separate objects for the bucket, strap, buckle, visor, and chin guard, I would say maybe Ctrl+J join everything into one object called helmet_Geo and then parent that to the GEO collection.

Go up to the tab called "Shading" along the top. 3. You should see a few nodes (rectangular/square boxes with several fields inside them) in the bottom window pane, one bigger one called Principled BSDF, green in color along the top. 4. Click anywhere in the window pane with these nodes. 5. Press Shift+A, select Search, then type "image", and select "image texture". 6. You should now have a new node called 'Image Texture" that is orange in color along the top. 7. Click on the Open button inside this node, and navigate to the Colette folder with the .FBX, .PNG, and .PSD files. 8. Select the .PNG file. 9. Now click on the "Color" output field with the little yellow dot, and connect the yellow dot of the Image Texture node to the yellow "Base Color" input field of the Principled BSDF. The color should now show up.

Hey Ethan. You can remove any duplicate texture images by going over the right side View Layer outliner which shows the list of all of your objects (i.e. should show GEO, armsGeo, headGeo, Camera, Lamp, etc.). On the top of this window, there is a little icon that looks like a picture of a mountain, click on it and a drop-down menu should appear. Select Blender File from the list. You should now see a list of different things like Brushes, Cameras, Collections. Expand the Images section. You should now see a list of all of the texture images attached to your Blender file. Delete all of your duplicates, the ones with the .001 and .002 suffix.

To have the original, "colette_tex_png" file attached to your model, go to the Shading tab along the top. Click on the model. A bunch of texture nodes (rectangular boxes with a bunch of different parameters in them) should appear. Click on the orange one, might be called Image Texture or maybe even "colette_tex_png.002", that is attached to the Base Color of the green Principled BSDF node. In the Image Texture node, click on the little icon that looks like a mountain and a sun, a drop down menu should appear, select the original colette_tex_png from the list.
