      Here's some quick tests....

      Curved surface painted normally
      Curved Surface painted using Projected Texture
      Curved Surface after using 'Create texture' in TGI3d
      UV Map in Image Editor
      TGI3d_4a.jpg

      Here's the file to take a look...
      TGI3d_Example_1.skp

      Another example with a more organic shape...

          What app you using for the mapping? I liked UV Tool Pro but couldn't get to grip with Roagkill for organic shapes.

          They're identical BTW πŸ‘

                    What does that one do, keep the UV's as the model is being distorted?

                      Why are you modelling butts? Thought you modelled things from the past not thongs at the rear!

                            Yes, exactly. Top class plugin, could easily sell for like $ 20 when finished.

                            Well, this was just for the sake of the UV's distorted and even scaled.
                            But is your butt chequered that this was the first thing that came to your mind?
