Unwraping a curved object (how I do)

[micheus]

I started by the most laborious - the worst mesh segments to work:


Which one would you prefer to segment to unwrap?

I picked the right one even knowing I will subdivide the mesh in a next step and that cause some distortion on the texture.
But, because I added a short bevel (with Inset) I know the faces in the boundaries areas will not be so affected by the smooth and that should not be a problem.
