Complex UV Layout in Maya

Did a blog post about this new challenge and the previous one user added image. Also I'm asking, RockyMills, Tweety, and Stwert if I can add their images in the post instead of just links to the forum. Hopefully they see this.

Fine by me - the images are hosted from my site anyway not SM

Sounds like a fun challenge... never actually entered one before... though followed dozens of them for years... plus I could also do with the help from the members here with my rendering skills with Maya.

My Favorite Toy Challenge - cbohlen1979

I am up for the challenge, my favorite toy when I was younger was the Nintendo Entertainment system complete with "Rob Robot." I will be doing the modeling, texturing, and lighting in Autodesk Maya 2011.
