Pain and suffering

It was time to put all those elements together on the base mesh and the process seemed straight forward and it should have been but how wrong was I, I stresses a lot doing this and in the end I had to seek some advice with the problem. Below here is a series of images that were failing due to a couple of major issues, the first was the image file being corrupted and the second was discovered purely by accident.


I admit that the model still needs fine tuning and I will do that in a few days, I need to move onto something else for sanity reasons!!! Otherwise here are a couple of renders I call 99% done :)
