Maya Tutorials: Introduction to Normal Maps

Here we were introduced to normal maps, a more recent method to get bump values on your model, since this tutorial I have explored even further this method and wrote a technical paper about it. Definitely, something to take in consideration for the future projects.

2nd Example

Mac does not support the Nvidia plugin for Photoshop to convert Normal Maps, luckily the program nDo enabled me to do the same thing.
