Hey. well for over 6 hours ive been searching and searching for answers but cant figure it out, i made a model of a simple head. I did unwrap uvw, and then unwraped it, then went in to photoshop painted on it and then imported the material and set it on the model. But its not following how it is supposed to, its like duplicated and stretching not going to where it is, as if its not following the uvw i layed out, so i tried a checker and and its distorted a bit and not following uvw, so i did what i saw in a tutorial by going to edit uvw and then fixing it in side edit by movine the vertex around but it wasnt changing anything, does anyone know why? its realling making me mad

did you assign UVW map then add unwrap UVW on top of that?
