Wrapping a Label Around a Bottle

Hi Anthony
For normal labels (wine et al):
* Plane (plus sections)
* Bend modifier

I´d say it´s a lot easier to copy a polygon-portion for the label and paste it into an empty polygon-object and move it a tad along its normals - export UVs as PDF - paint etc - and map.

* Yep, it definitely is easier to copy / paste a selection of the bottle´s polys for a label.
* I just prefer to use “out of the box” primitives for newbie responses.
 
* As per Frank:
* select polys in the bottle´s mesh (the object needs to be editable)
* copy & paste
* apply the normal move tool to the set of polys to nudge it a whisker off the surface of the original bottle
* if need be, split and rename the object
* apply material to the label
Cheers :shock:
