Been lurking here for a while now, just being plain jealous of everything posted. I've recently taken a desire to make 3d models for small android games and thankfully found a friend who programs. But this is all new to me and I'm trying to get in as much practice as possible. Been following a lot of tutorials and studying peoples work here and want to post my first actual low poly model created from scratch and memory, no tutorials and such.

Would GREATLY appreciate criticisms and and the like as all I want is to learn, learn, learn!

Thank you .

:edit:
I know about the seams and the texture work is not quite perfect, just want to know if people can see places where I'm going greatly wrong. Shall keep updating on this one as I get better.

Free_Fall: if you mirror the UVs for one side of the car, and move and scale the tires a bit, you can get that on a 1:2 texture. It'd look a bit more professional than all this wasted space.

@Yuigaron

looks alright, nothing really 'wrong'.

But I think it would be more interesting with skin all the way around the eye, then he could blink. You could also do the eyeball as a half sphere, the missing half would be hidden by the eyelid. And he could look around some.

The eyeball and the skin don't need to be a continous mesh either.

And I'd go ahead and just make the tentacles 3 sided. Better volume though a few more tris. You're already using a lot of tris to make them 2 sided, might as well use a few more and get better shape.
Great at starting projects...

Zwebbie : I planned on giving it some different racing liveries, hence the reason why it's layed out like this. The empty uv space will be used for different bodyparts like mudflaps, rally lights and other thingymabobs.

I guess I should have told this in the beginning :p

Badnouse : I honestly spend to much time on those bits, I just kept moving the lights one pixel at a time then saved it and afterwards checked it 3D studio max, until it was as close as it could get. After that I just moved the vertex points around a tiny bit in the uv editor until it was perfect.

And that bgeviniciusilva was not the author of the low poly model but instead, it was free_fall.

And that apparently, I need to get some sleep.

Awesome character, ADM!

There are some lines on the texture that could do with some anti-aliasing though, the shirt especially.
