I think an update every 2-3 days is the right rate… everyday would be a little spamming and i generally do not have enough things done in one day.

I’ve added stitches to the entire bridle, it looked nice and then I deleted it all because if I keep adding details while the model isn’t a little more complete, it’s going to come back to bite me later. Now the goal is to complete the bending/mirroring of all the parts so we have a mesh that is complete and ready for detailing, and before this I need all the texture UVs to be in a reasonable state, simply because as long as everything is flat, it’s easy to make good-looking UVs.

I apologise for today’s pictures, but it’s the same bridle so i see no reason to post more fancy pictures until i get to the point where i will work on the textures.

So that’s what I’ve done most of the day, getting all the little parts UVWmapped, I will .. most likely pack all these on 3 distinct maps: base, accent, and metallic parts.

A friend of mine suggested that I add a support to add a personal logo on the bridle, the outside of the blinkers is a nice, mostly flat surface that would be perfect for that, so that’s probably what I will add once I’m done unwrapping the straps.

I still haven’t made any kind of bit, but considering it will work as an independent part, and that it’s a fairly easy shape, i will keep it for later.
