Thanks for the feedback guys.
Next I'm just going to try something more complex with lithunwrap, like a basic sword or something. Luckily the modelling side of things I have no trouble with, it's just the time consumption of using lithunwrap to texture everything, I've made half-decent models like the two below but texturing was the only hurdle to get over. Opus, Good luck with blender.

I might make a much lower poly sword and see what I can do to it.
JeroenNL: I'm using gamespace light for my model editing and I have become a bit acustomed to it and seeing as I found out to use lithunwrap I might stick to that for a while. Thanks for the advice though.
