    Hi, Great video! However I have encountered a problem. When I project an image (illustration) to the mesh, it looks good in Blender and the texture is fine. I export it as a targa and when it comes into CS2, it looks pixelated and there are blocky artifacts. I also tried Substance Painter and the same thing is happening. I don't know what's causing it. I'm using 4k texture resolution for custom paint job and gunsmith. If you know what I'm doing wrong and have a solution, please let me know. Thank you! 🙏

    For drawing check some blender tutorials. Don't forget to select material that you have created in 'material' tab (lower righ Earth like icon), than in UV editor at top of the window choose your skin, in edit mod select all and than head to "texture painting". I hope this helps a little. It's hard to explain without video. But you should check some blender youtubers like " Ryan King" and "Blender guru". They have plenty of begginer and advanced blender tutorials. They are the best and most of the things that i have learend, enough to make my own models and publish at Unity and Unreal marketplace. Can't wait to try this skin editing and to publish my own skins and to play woth them in CS2 finally 😊
