Help with mapping please

[visions]

Hi,

i have to create several overlapping circles of paving patterns in a radial shape. Something like a sectioned / sliced sphere

 

Somehow i seem to have lost it and dont know how to UV map the object to achieve brick / tiles that move in a radial pattern

 

Something like this (check the attachment) but much more complex, with overlapping circles and circular bands.

 

I have created textures which i am mapping on to circles with thickness, but i want to do the same using uv mapping and the tile map.

 

Thanks for your help

You could loft the circle. That way the mapping automatically follows the path. Might make the mapping easier.

The tiles and joint lines at the extreme edges start getting thicker...i want to avoid that.
