Just say what sucks about it. Thanks.

btw. I'm going to work on a skin next.

edit: when I try to import a skin it says: model contains no skins

That name is soooo egoboo! LOL

You might want to se what you could do about reducing the number of polygons. There used to be a 100 vertex limit and all of the old models (except the sand worm) conform to this.

cheers

cool.

You can duplicate the way that most models do their arms. Remove your model's arms. Then pull one of the points on the sphere hands into center of the body to make hand+arm.

Also, it might be nicer if the "brow ridge" was wider or more prominent.

Maybe this could be for a "watter domain" module, similar to the hoppers in the fire domain?

Thanks for the tips, only 85 vertices now Very Happy

.
Is this brow better? It's hard to make it stand out in non-textured gourad shading.

Pascal was the first formal computer language that I learned. But that was like 24 years ago... and I haven't heard much about it since.

It's almost like someone said that their favorite languages were COBOL, Modula-2, and Ada. Smile

It' how I started, I got it for free as a gift when I was 9, couldn't do much with it then, (just copy pasting code Laughing

)but rediscovered it at 11. I moved on to java about one or two years later for no reason what so ever.

Anyway On-Topic:

You go to the Skin Viewer thingy and move the faces to the right spot.
