Why is it that one of the smallest parts of the model has probably the most polygons? Also, all of those cylinders used can be made into 6 or 8 sided, no need for anything more.

Yes, one variation is all set up except the player model, it includes the sword with remixed anims and custom combo. Its in my 153rd mod. (the one that looks like a magnaguard)

Looks nice, that would be a resource to quite a bit of new modders!

Very nice commando indeed :). @destos: very good model for a beginner. My first couple of models were nowhere near that :) ...

Anyway, Here's my trusty "peacemaker" almost ready for ingame :D

I watched TCW 'Ambush' yesterday, and must say i found Yoda kind off cute.. At a certain moment he slaughtered a whole droid tank division, and i really felt like SWBF:2 did no good job on Yoda.. At least not the TCW or cartoon one :)

Anyhow, a small edit, new head, the hair in the back has black parts, that will be transparent. He is also taller as the BF2 one, and will have a new combo setup. Enjoy... MASTER Yoda :P

Thanks for nice comments, and thanks YaNk for noticing ;)

Final version:

Little offtopic: I made a sick weapon system for him.. He has this wooden stick, and can only walk, unless he uses Force Valor, which makes him activate his lightsaber, and perform the most deathly and damaging lightsaber moves ever (well, some are asset's) for an amount of time.. When his stamina is empty he needs to recharge ^^
