I had the good fortune to meet Mike at this past years SIGGRAPH, and he showed me a couple of the things he was gonna put in his book. Very cool images, and his mastery of the uv editor is amazing. I had NO idea of how to use UVMapper before he show'd me a couple of the ways he went about using textures on his plane models. Great info. Opened my eyes. Now that I've said all that... I... (mumbles something...) I... OK. I haven'y ponyed up the couple bucks for the book yet. There. I said it. (Now I just have to go out and do something about it!) But I'm aimin' to!
