Hi, guys

I have searched on YT how to paint a new object or mesh and tried to paint the horns but I didn’t figure it out… Do I have to unwrap it ? Any help will be appreciate.

Thanks

A. just use vertext paint, but then you need to have more vertices depending on the details.

or
B. Unwrap the horns (UV-unwrap) and attach an diffuse bitmap to the material nodes. This bitmap can be painted on using Blender UI or create something in Krita, Gimp using and UVmap bitmap export as a guideline.

Ask the goat or whatever horn possessor to stand very still while you use the paintbrush! :grin:
Or follow Fed Pete’s advice.
