Apply logo to curved or round surface (cylinder)
-
have created a cylinder which i require a logo to be placed on the front. have saved a jpeg image of logo,
have then made a copy of size of cylinder as a flat face. imported logo as texture positioned it and projected it to face. i have then loaded it into paint to apply to curved surface.
this works to what i require excect that it wraps all the way around the cylinder giving multiple images of logo, i only require one on the front. can someone explain where have i gone wrong or is there a better method. is there a way to take section out of cylinder place logo and the place back giving what i need. any ideas will be much appreciated.regards

Hi FT,
Have a look at this topic; there are a couple of solutions there.

I usually create a separate curved section the same proportions as the logo. Import the logo and paint to the section then apply to the cylinder.
Remember, if the logo is not bounded by a rectangle, lets say it's a circle, you will need to create a transparent bg and save as a png.
