I'm going to start with the Knight. i haven't done much UV mapping. Depending on how long it takes me, I might do more.

Good start so far - I absolutely reek when it comes to texturing so it'll be interesting to see what you make of this!

Thanks. I've made some more progress. I skipped over the hands for now, I'm dreading them. What's the best way to go about UVing them. I was thinking doing planer and then separating the front from the back. I'll probably use a temp. Endomorph to position the hands for the best projection.

You could try using a series of cylindrical UVs for the hands (would minimise stretching) although blending at the base of each finger would be a pain.

Superb start though so far...

well I've done about everything else. I started working on the hands. Nothing worth showing on them yet. I tried a few different methods I think I'm on the right track now but I need a break. more to come.

Hands are mapped, I'm sure I could spend hours more tweeking but... I'm happy with them.
