You're right, here are 2 thumbnails leading to the pics:

Bottom
I weighted Foul and Roron now, I'm going to let them exported, and will post some screens of both

The model overall looks really good but the front of the head with the eyes looks kind of boxish.

Finally textured my billboard, but this is what it looks like:
Supposed to be advertising SWBF2 to the people of SWBF2
i know bad joke. Is it possible to only add the texture to a certain area?

Maybe, but I need to fix my texturing problem, which I have no idea how to fix.
EDIT: I think I have an idea on how now...
EDIT2: For anyone who likes this, should I just make it plain wood with a stick man painting it?

It looks great, but his face seems too flat to me.

You have to arrange the UVs on the texture. Press Alt + 7.

The face too flat? I'm going to smooth out head indeed, also the connection with the neck, but thanks for the nice comments so far

It's finally about halfway done with the textures now, and I added something to it.
Front:
Back:
Stick Painter (say something if it takes away):
How is it?

I have to say that was pretty creative
Is it your first model?

That is pretty neat

. That texture must be pretty detailed, because it took quit a few minutes just to show the full screenshot

No, it's not my first. It's, like, my 5th. And were you talking about overall creativity, or the stickman painter dude?
EDIT: Could someone "magically" come up with a texture for the poles and railings on this?

Just choose any random metalish texture from the assets. For things like that that need relatively little detail, it doesn't need to look perfect or anything.
You can also try searching for metal textures on google.

I'd advise making the billboard a bit taller. The picture looks stretched...

A really simple sniper tower, my first step into the big wide world of architecture (quite a small step though XD)
Probably will look better after it's textured

I did, but they looked bad on the model.
EDIT: I got a new wood texture for the legs but they look really bad.
EDIT2: It's almost completely textured now. I circled the one untextured part, but please tell me if the poles look bad.

Try setting the projections, (planular, spherical, cylindrical, ect) to different planes; xz, xy, yz.
Or use cubic, it's almost always good, even on cylinders.

I know-- spatial (i think it was) looked better at the time. and there WAS no cylindrical for me.
