the concept is cool. the model is built all wrong.
i think you should redo this model and built it peice by peice.
smoothing a geometry will not alway make it look better. as in this case.
but i see the 3d version of the model does not reflect the 2d sketches that well. i don't want to sound mean, but the model is in my opinion crappy in every aspect. you should follow some tut, or learn basic modeling before trying to create more complicated chracters. everyone started somewhere. my first models were crap to be honest. so that's why it's best to model simpler things and learn how the final results will vary or try to get a desired result when modeling with polygons. good luck. and keep modeling. but don't jump too far ahead, it takes time, a long time to as good as other peopple i have seen. i know i still have al ot to learn.

Dragonhawk: but if u really want to get expert in texturing just using mayas tool, like u mentioned in your thread u should learn like utilities in hyphershader, also get really familiar with basics attributes like specular, diffuse, ambient colour, highlight, and more and more and more......
But basically right using just maya tool to texture u will have some limitation also u will be doing a long way around....
U mentioned about texturing your humanoid, well I belive u need to work more in your model, cause once u modelled and textured u will want to animate...u don't want to keep in standart position "also your model from what I could see is not in the right position to be rig" , so first off all...belive me u need to work on your model, if u wanna texture it.....another think is I belive u expeting to texture a smooth model.....normally I texture in the not smooth one is much more easier.......
