Texture examples

In class we had to choose 3 different models to texture, and then explain about what textures will be on the models, and what things will affect the textures. The 3 models I chose were: a crate, a ship and a sword.

We needed to describe what the function of the model would be in real life, as well as: who made it, what is it made of, how was it made, how is it used, what is it used for and what type of environment will it be in. Below is a table with all these questions answered for each model.
