The mapping process

The process of Mapping. I have attempted to make textures for the bear in photoshop. However, the results however, did not turn out as i had hoped. When I had rendered the UV's I had not taken into account that i may have to remember the positioning of the limbs. Therefore when I came to make the textures in photoshop I found myself guessing where certain parts like the paws and nose should be present. The result was a bear which had its paws, noses and seams all in the wrong places about its body. I meant to place a picture of that particular mistake but i can't seem to locate it. Reminder to self...always back up work!
