Texturing in Blender is no small task to master. That being said, here is my curated list of Retopology & retopoflow tutorials: The free and up-to-date version of Retopoflow can be found on CGCookie’s GIT repository:

If you have the money to spare, I highly recommend just purchasing the product. The price tag simply helps support Blender, and entitles you to customer support. While this product normally retails for around $85 USD, this product is technically open-source, which means it can be legally purchased, totally free.
