In the pursuit of improving my Blender skills, I turned toward CGCookie.com. I have been working on the introduction to blender learning flow which has awesome tutorial videos and exercises. The Crystal Oblivion model was the result of a texture painting exercise from CGCookie.com. This was my first-time texture painting, all in all the entire texturing process was done in Blender and took approximately 8 hours.
I have linked a [speed paint video](https://studio.youtube.com/video/qx3rG6mBfHk/edit) for anyone is interested in viewing the entire 8 hours summarized in 8 minutes. There are some cuts and jumps which is just bad video editing on my part. If you have any questions about the methods used in the video just put a time stamp (0:00) and your question, I’ll be more than happy to get back to you.
