Time for action — adding a texture to the seats

Now, you've added a material to the boat. Next, you will add a wood texture to the seats and learn a new panel in the Properties window.

1. Press Tab to go into Object Mode, and select the seats with theRMB.

2. Add a new material slot just like you did when you made the Hull material. Name it Seats.

3. Go up to the header of the Properties window, and select the Textures button. It has a red and white checkerboard on it, and it is next to the Materials button. It's highlighted in blue, as seen at the top of the next image.

4. Add a new texture by clicking on the button called New, as shown at the bottom of the following screenshot:

   

5. Where the New button was, it now says Texture. Click on the word Texture, and change it to Seat Texture. Press Enter when you are done.

6. Just below where you named the texture, it says Type:, as seen in the following graphic. Click on the dark button to the right of Type:. A menu comes up. Select Image or Movie.
