I usually work face-by-face when working on something like that. I don't think there's any special technique to learn when it is that low, though it can help to work with a flat-shading / constant material applied so that you're only worrying about the bare silhouette more than anything else.

Begging is bad.

Requesting a tutorial to make a model is pretty much the same as requesting the model itself. you'll have a VERY hard time requesting a tutorial though as they take a while to produce and get online.

A quick estimate, how much would you know about modeling and texturing or making a game in general? And what software do you use

If you weren't begging then pardon me thats just not really the best way to ask for help

I understand your situation i use Maya and i can model just about anything except characters of any kind. I even know my anatomy and such its just not something that i can do. Its simple i know.

You cant eally get specific tutorials on how to make a character your going to have to learn to make exactly what you need for yourself. theres thousands of tutorials out there you just have to find the right ones

Ive never looked deep into modeling tutorials for Wings3D so i wouldn't know which are the best but google can help you find some low poly character modeling tutorials

http://vimeo.com/1048354?pg=embed&sec=1048354 heres a "Low Poly" character modeling tutorial made by Jonathan Williamson that was pretty good but in Blender. you can translate what you see done in Blender to wings3D

Its all extruding, deleting Pushing, pulling and connecting vertz not software specific

Yeah I agree with madness import as well, and dude you have the wire frames for the kind of models that you want to make. Its just a fact of learning the basics and studying on where and how they cut and used their polys. But when I was college this tutorial right here was great start for modeling characters http://www.3dtotal.com/ffa/tutorials/max/joanofarc/joanmenu.asp good luck!

So he should take his invested time and energy to make an character for you? Or well, a tutorial of a character so that you can make an exact copy out of it? And that's because "you need it" and "it's easy for him". Well he, or anyone that have the knowledge to make one, should with other word put there time into you game. Yeah, anyone would happily do that.

Do what everybody else here have been doing. Put some god damn time into your modeling skills and get on with it.

As you choose to ignore what have been said to help you, i went ahead and did something for you. I GOOGLED :poly142: This is pretty much what i came up with. It's just a face tutorial, but that may give you an idea fo what is needed to do.
http://www.wc3c.net/showthread.php?t=89763

But yeah.. There dosen't seam to be that many actuall tutorial on this subject. So what you can and should do (what i would do) is to look at the extremly well done characters in the WAYWO lowpoly thread. It's a gold mine.

And a generall forum tip. Don't come in freash, like a douch and start demanding tutorials. This forum is extremly helpfull, open and resourefull. Just act nice and you'll be treaded nice. That's that.

easyest = topology stealing as practise

DISCLAIMER!
(but dont post/sell/use things you do with this technique except for practice, because you could make people pissed and probalby face legal actions otherwise, one does not know how te orginal author acts, and if posting alsways show your sources, and make clear you recreate something pro practice)

first you google for lowpoly topology
and probalby find images like this
http://imageshack.us/f/84/lowpolyspidermanof7.png/

then you open your modeling tool, load the image as texture on a plane, ad recreate the front as a flat model (with topology matching)

after youre done make the same with the back and move them vertexes until the shape gets volume, then collapse the faces on the edge and you can view the model in 3d

you should do about 10 lowpoly models this way and then you should figure out how things work

after you feel comfortable with this technique try paint a topology shot with linetool in a 2d program and remodel it this way

(this is the point where you are able to do your own models in a very simple way)

until you learn how to skip the 2d drawing step you can paint topologies on objects from images and remodel them

thats how i learned proper lowpoly modeling
