I've separated the UV tiling functionality by using a TextCoord and multiply that by a ScalarParam for each 'material' texture parameters, now I can also control the tiling of each element in the vertex painting :] Thanks for your help
The studs and many other elements are going to be embossed, but I'm already working on a second pass that will reduce the total number of them. The Logo itself is finalized however, as it needs to fit the same footprint as Dice of Crowns' logo.
ty, Onyram. I've tried to make something similar to a fish mouth, but in fact it didn't match so well. Here is the hirez sculpt; I was inspired by that Aliens in fifth element who want to bought the guns.
Did a bit of Zbrush work fleshing out the shapes. I'm leaving off the armor / cyborg elements for now until I get a form I like. I'll update some more soon. Thanks!
listen to Rhinokey, if you're putting something on your car you want a sticker that can stand up to the elements. You'll probably get more info on online vinyl graphics by going to a car customization forum.

here's a nice page, might give you a few ideas: http://theodoregray.com/PeriodicTable/Elements/079/index.s7.html it pretty much depends on the purity of the gold. gold with silver in it will have a less yellow tone, and such.
Oh yea, it factors in the low poly in the Mental Ray AO bake too, totally retarded. I normally go down to element mode on the low poly and hide everything just before I bake.
In addition to what MoP is suggesting, you can also go down into the element mode of the low poly object and "Hide All" then bake. That is if you're just trying to capture the high poly AO and bake it to the low.
Yeah, he needs some more variation. Even his visor/face plate is brown! Try pushing the yellow elements more, like on the boots. Maybe make the face plate thing yellow too.
