Thanks pirate... if I make a tutorial I will enter the contest

Bazza.. any chance of a side view

I should have another update soon.

got another bit done.. almost finished this part of the model now.. there's a little bit of tweaking and that should do it.. I will also be reducing the poly count so it will be suitable for a game environment.

I am curious how you are adding geometry to the edge of the model as you move down into the torso. Are you using the extrude tool or dividing edges etc?

Yes... I am extruding the edges and then re-selecting that new edge/s and placing accordingly.

This is a good way to get a nice flow/form onto the model

moving around to the front now...
with the next update I will give out the poly count that it's at so far.

... just finishing the bottom of the torso.. front and back... I've also finished under the arm, this is a very tricky spot.. there'll be a bit of tweaking to do there aswell to get it to look right.. started of the arms.. moving back to them later.

poly count... 6,700 tris
