Planet Saturn Texture Maps
WEBThe plane object had the color and transparency maps applied to it with UV mapping so that when the bend object twisted it around into a 360° circle, the texture stuck to it and bent smoothly with the plane. A similar trick can be accomplished in Lightwave with morph targets. color map.
