Genesis 8.1 trying to add a 'chocker' neck tattoo, but cant find the back of the neck. Ive placed the tattoo stars all over her torso and nothing touches the back of her neck so i can play the game of trying to connect them. Where is the back of the neck on the texture map?

Thanks!

    It's likely part of the head surface.

    the head surface is where i got the front neck part, but nothing i can see connects to the back part of the neck

    With 8.1 the whole of the neck belongs to the Head surface, purple in this screenshot

    The texture map (no matter you use a Torso map for G8F or Head map for G8.1F) wraps the neck based on the UV layout, so the way you just painted textures on the front of the neck wouldn't work ~~ The back of the neck is in the circled area shown in the screenshot attached.

    You have to place and align the textures based on a Torso or Head template... or paint / project the texture image in external software, e.g. Blender / Adobe Pt. 

    Edit: Better use a layered image. Or, you also can try using an Iray decal node.
