Looks really good! Does it have a skeleton / can it be animated?

I'm going to be adding a skeleton once I'm happy with the model itself because it still has some... issues... seems that some polygons are inside out?? Whatever I dunno... the UV shows on the inside of the mesh but it's see through on outside and I don't really know how to fix that.

Man it sucks that I don't know blenders interface. Sounds to me like some of your faces have flipped normals. It's a really simple fix in Max but I dunno about blender. Try a search on flipping faces/normals/polygons

Alright thanks man, I have given up on that model for this reason so sweet. I'll go look it up right now. xD


EDIT: Oh my god! after selecting every face (A-Key), with CTRL+N it fixed all of my faces O.O I was expecting it to be hard.

No way. Unifying normals is usually a 1 button or quick hot key away fix. You just have to know the button or hot key.

This model has been abandoned so that I can start working on better models and such. I will no longer be working on this model I am only keeping it to look back to and see how well I did compared to my future skill (if I am skilled in the future)

So to make a long story short, goodbye! Lock/delete this thread if you wish, I really don't care.
