a little vertex welding, assigning smoothing groups, and is that a normal map?

[Sean McBride]

hehehe, looks alright /images/graemlins/smile.gif Like jerome said you need to do some vertex welding. You might want to look into your anatomy, get some good referances there. He's looking a little flat, you may want to round him out just a bit and there are to many divisions on most of the armor. Fix the little problems and he'll be a pretty interesting character.

Jerome: It looks like a normal map dosnt it hehehe, i'm pretty sure its the color of the lights /images/graemlins/wink.gif

Yeah, I was mirroring the UVs to save space, so I detached some of the parts and forgot to weld them together. As for the armor, I've been meaning to make everything one coherent piece.

Shortened the arms a little bit, changed the boots and welded everything together. Comments? /images/graemlins/ooo.gif

poor bastard is just begging for smoothing groups.

[Jerome]
