Any helpful tips on uvw mapping

Recommended Posts

Hi all , well after having some computer issues recently i seem to have finally fixed it :) so now maybe i can get back to some good stuff . I'm still finding it tricky to uv map the models i'm working on and always end up skinning it using an easy method i've found although the results are not the best lol . So i was wondering if anyone out there has any good and helpful tips in this area , i've been through a lot of tutorials but still not cracked it yet .

Here are a few screenies of 2 things i would like to take further but both models will need the uv mapping sorted before i can progress .

Looking good but thin out the area near the 30mm by about half, and make it straight, the sides right near the cockpit on the lower fuselage do not slope in. That area is relatively boxy with rounded edges.
