Hi Martin,

Thanks very much for your help.

I had come across this technique as a possible solution however it didn’t seem to be appropriate in my case as my texture is a graphic repeated pattern. Any inaccuracy in the distortion would be easily spotted on my sphere!

This time I modelled my way around the problem but I can see myself using the polar co-ordinates technique alot in future!

Thanks for the tip regarding cylindrical mapping and thanks again for taking the time to respond to my post.

Kind regards,

Nicol
