Texture Breakthrough

Having warched the Gnomon UV mapping dvd 3 times, I now appear to understand every single part of it. I am in shock! I am extremely pleased about it aswell. I really have learned so much in the last few weeks.
To create this UV map I created separate shells from selected faces using planar mapping. Then I was able to adjust the UVs to suit my needs.
All I need to do now is find a suitable texture and maybe do a bit of re-modelling.
