I've been using the same head texture for a few months, and I'd like to start making new ones, both to sell and use. I'm using gimp right now almost exclusively, and it's not working very well. I also had adobe illustrator, if that would be a better choice. My biggest questions are:

How do you make perfect circles/stop image from getting so distorted?

My textures look... ugly. General art tips?

Thank you,

Butterback

Get a head template make a layer and make the head on the layer and bit by bit upload them until you get it right or what you think is right thats what i do.

Well there is a tut for the right mapping I will try search it up for you and you can also try search yourself if you want.
But you need to take high: 512 Width: 1028
If you then draw a circle and resize it to 512x512 and you try it ingame it will look round
