I dont like using textures, I find it lazy. If you cant make it look nice with polygons, its not really a good model :P

Also, the text is loving tiny. Resizing would be much appreciated :P

Etching the designs into the mesh itself using edges and coloring accordingly. Yes, it can be brutal on the poly count (if used at the wrong times), but it looks a lot nicer.
