In this series of lessons, we will be exploring many of the tools and features of MARI that will allow you to texture your models faster and with more precision.
This course will begin by discussing the basic workflow of projecting texture detail onto your geometry within MARI as well as important features and settings that you will want to be aware of at an early stage of your texturing process.

Mari was developed by a New Zealand company Weta Digital, which used to create films like District 9, The Lovely Bones and Avatar. Mari is intended only for texturing 3D-models. From analogues (Zbrush, Mudbox, Blender, 3d-coat) is different for up to several thousands of large textures (32k to 32k pixels) on the model, greater speed of working with large textures, greater opportunities for visualization, flexible brush engine, supports animation and the ability to create animated textures.

MARI allows artists to concentrate on painting detailed, multi-layered textures directly onto 3D models in a fluid and natural way. MARI was originally conceived at Weta Digital, because no existing commercial product could handle the complex, highly detailed look development work required by films such as District 9 and Avatar.
