What's the prefer medthod (character)
right now i am modeling each of my characters' body part individually in NURBs, then I convert it to Polygons and stitch it together, then i covert the whole body of character (once all stiched together) into sudivision....
If I want to animate these characters, is this the method in creating one?
thanks

When doing the low poly rigging, you should also smooth proxy it so that you can preview how your character would look smoothed when you move it around.
That's just my 2 cents.
