Hi!

I have a gameObject with some structure inside like this:  
Soldier/Armor  
Soldier/Head  
Soldier/Arms

How I can access to renderer.material.mainTexture or renderer.material.color of children transforms only (ie Armor.transform) from csharp script on parent object (Soldier)?

Thanks!

You can use [Transform.Find()](http://docs.unity3d.com/Documentation/ScriptReference/Transform.html) to find the transforms by name. Then you can use the renderer in the transform.

```
Transform trans = transform.find("Head");
trans.renderer.material.color = Color.red;

```

If you have a hierarchy of transforms, you can also walk the hierarchy:

```
Transform trans = transform.find("Body/Leg/toes");

```
