Great things are created with a good plan, which is why any animation project must begin with a storyboard.

Maya is also more effective for animations. Then I unwrapped the low poly mesh model into three UV sets in order to get a good resolution of the textures. UV sets are the coordinates that map the 2D texture images onto the 3D model surface. They define how the texture wraps around the model.
