Re: Mech Modelling - And Confusion....
Yeah, that would be the bones (missing the back toe though). You don't have to merge each seperate part into one mesh UNLESS the engine requires it, or its more organic with bending.

Re: Is Maya becoming the industry standard? Advice on retraining in Maya also needed.
I agree with this. I also started in Maya, modeling and switched to Max because at the time it was more widely adopted in the local studios and mod communities, it also had way better modeling tools.

Re: Sabretooth
yeah, I see what you mean about your texturing progress. Here are my crits: The camo designs (blobs) are too small. They just add noise atm, so scale them up. A lot of the edges are being lost.
