Book Texture

 I have quickly completed the texture of a book that I have modeled within Maya. At first I used a lot of brown leather in order to make the different textures and feel on the outside of the book however I felt that it didn't have the right look that I was going for and personally I didn't like it. Due to this I changed the color scheme over to black, overall I think that It looks more dark and deceiving, more like a horror book than a normal worn book which adds a different element to the texture within itself. I used the bevel and emboss glow functions to add the added effects on the details on the front and back of the book to make them stand out against the powerful leather book itself. Overall I like the end product of the book however it is very messy and rushed so I think that I will try to do another texture on the book at a later date when I have gained some more skills in photo shop. Underneath are two images of the book, one in Maya and the other is the texture in photo shop.
