And here are the UVs that i have made in a program called headus UVLayout. This program is like a dream because is very easy to use and you can make a layout like this in 5 minutes almost automatically. You just tell the program what are the parts you want and he does the rest.

Good point. I didnt notice it, but i dont think maya will care.
Thanks for your comment anyway.

I have been modeling and here are the results.

First a few shots of the process

And this is almost finished (the zbrush part).

Now I have to make a normal map with zmapper (a part of zbrush) and export a low (not so low) resolution model as obj to maya.Then apply the normal map to get the details.

Thanks for your comments guys.

Hammer:
I have to make a cavity map in ZB and apply it as color texture in maya acording to the tutorial. This is apart of the normal map that i have already made and is
applied in maya as bump map but choosing the option tangent space normal.

The cavity map helps to define the imagen but is using the color texture, so I still dont know how im going to do my own painting apart of the tutorial.Perhaps a layered texture or a layered shader.

Coldwave:
I had no idea of what i was going to do, i just began modeling and changing things until getting something. I dont like to much the statue looking it has, but i was tired and decided to stop there and continue with the tutorial.

and here is how it looks in maya with the normal map made in zbrush:

i think to avoid the "drippy waxy candle" look you should build up large detail from lower subdivisions. I'm by no means am an expert, so some more experienced zbrushers might be able to confirm or correct what i'm saying.
