Started a Pirate model awhile back, just got around to working on it again, somehow I don't think a pegleg suits him. but I will see how the flow goes after I finish up the head.

Well he's looking mighty foppish, though the peg leg sort throws off his character, make it look very ornate or have jewels in it, then yes, I could see him wearing it.

He's looking very small. like an 10 year old. His arms are a tad long. what's the intended poly count,and for what application?

Intended poly count is 4700, use is for a HL2 modification player model. edit* Shortened arms a taaad and modeled a low poly musketoon pistol intender for 3rd person view(just about to take away peg leg). Can anyone guide me to a helpful tutorial on skinning models(preferably one with alpha mapping as well *the hammer and pin on the 3rd person musketoon is ment for a 2d alpha map*), I have been modeling for a while, I just never really looked into skinning. Thanks for crit and comments. [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

A little better in terms of, he is not so thin and his peg leg is gone. any constructive crit is welcome or comments, its ment for a non realistic Silly-ish modification.

put the peg leg back .... it was nice ... just make it thicker and longer....

New update, and with better hair! fixed up strangeness in face, although his hair line is still receeded.

Maybe to add imphasis on him being cartoony, I should enlarge his boots to cartoon proportion? any ideas? even though his hips still make him look cartoony. and yes, you may compare him to the quaker oats man [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

not the boots, but the boot flaps. at the top of the boots, make those come out, and insanely big :P

just a more upclose one, does anyone know any good tutorials on doing bones? I have no clue how to to rig him, although while I was modeling, I did make sure that he would not deform or at least tried, I won't know until the rig [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

Now that I have finished modeling my Fancy Lad player model, I am starting on a Nordic Brawler, just started the head tonight, not sure what type of hair to give him? Helmut? pony tail? bald with braids coming off side burns and beard?
