I like the skin except the commandbridges "glass", because I think the Acclamator doesn't have any cockpit windows :?
Thank my friend! well, about the windows, see this pic:

You should consider making it transparent so that it doesn't look painted on.

Now I dunno if I should be proud of this or not... :roll:

A smuggler/bounty hunter/whatever I have been working on. The model is decent, but it could have been fifty trillion times better... far from my best model ever, but I haven't done so many characters, so I guess it doesn't matter. The textures are like 60-70 % done. It's for an SWBF1 mod. :music:

I've never modeled and have no intentions of doing so, so you really can't take my opinion too seriously.

It might be the angle... I modelled it with the clone trooper as "skeleton" so I could get the base pose right, so the proportions aren't extremely off... I hope. :angel:

Note though that the hands aren't there yet. I will make them soon enough.

There isn't any real structure to the shoulders, they wont deform well until they're fixed.

looks good although it has many unnecassery/notworthbeingthere polys

the view from the wireframe isn't the best to see what all the polies are used for but it's the best I could find, also a few poly wasting objects will be gotten rid of later like the trigger they are just there for comparison to the reference.

I have a model... of sorts... It is meant to be a pillar, if that isn't too obvious...

Not made in XSI, made in sketchup, hence the ridiculous waste of polies, and I really have no idea where to go from here. To the tutorial-mobile! *cheesy batman music plays*

EDIT: without bothering with tutorials, here's it with less polies!

My first attempt, actually. Only thing is, in the process the textures seem to have been left behind, but apart from that, its about the right size. Unfortunatley, as I have almost no experience with XSI, I have no idea how to texture/delete random lines. Texturing I will need to look in to, but is there a fairly simple way of erasing lines? :angel:

I get that too, but do you also miss the surfaces on your model? (btw, next time you model in sketchup, click on the circle or polygon tool, then type the number of edges you'd want it to have. For SWBFII, round details usually only require 5 to 6 edges to still look good)

you can delete edges (the connections between "points") be selecting them with the raycast edge selection tool (its shortcut is "I") and the deleting them by pressing the delete button on your keyboard
