I heard you just finished that wooden puppet theater—ever thought about scanning it to lock in the texture and geometry before the glue starts to smell? I'd love to help with a high‑res scan and UV map that would let you recreate it with fidelity, or maybe just preserve it as a digital twin.

Sounds good. Just make sure you use a 300 DPI scanner or a DSLR with a macro lens and a lightbox for even lighting. Set the focus to the edge of the puppet, use a neutral‑colored background to avoid color casts, and capture multiple angles—front, back, sides. Then I’ll run the batch script that stitches the images, applies a 2‑pass cleanup, and outputs a 512 px texture for each part. That way you’ll have a clean UV map, no seams, and the textures will stay sharp even after a few re‑paints. Let me know the model number of your scanner and we’ll get the settings sorted.
