lol, thanks, I suppose there’s something to that :p. Good eyes too, the angles are actually off… I don’t have a good edge loop running through where the crease needs to be at. I’ve toyed with remodeling it (plus that would help with texturing), but also trying to sneak on by (since there’s a chance it would be obscured in the final render if from the front, but that’s no excuse).

I very much value your input Modron and always take your advice quite seriously. I do understand, I got killed on this about a year ago when I was newb (well I’m still newb but) http://blenderartists.org/forum/showthread.php?t=171402 . The real problem is more that I have failed to put together the “how”. (or lack insight/experience into) … so I will be painfully facing that here and hopefully finally conquering it… this is one of my “fears”/“demons” to conquer, I try to hide it but I need to actually learn how to control placement.

To that point, here’s the results of todays ideas on “how”.

Just thought it’s worth posting a link here for people following this post. Here’s one of the best Hard Surface Texturing tutorials out there (application agnostic)
