When you import a model, you will also get a folder named ‘Material’. In that folder you’ll find the material that the model uses. The material is empty however, because the texture isn’t in your project.

So import the texture of the model. When it’s imported click on the material and drag the texture into the square.

thanks so much but i need some more help

I have the same problem. Can you please clarify how you fixed it. I have the materials folder and some textures, but when I drag the texture to the Albedo square only one texture shows at a time. Cab please help. Thank you in advance.
