dude, your modeling rocks. I cant wait to see the whole thing textured! Are you going to make it old-looking and dirty? That would be very challenging

What I lack in skill I make up for with enthusiasm.

polys?

Are you modeling in polygons only, or are you converting anything to Sub-Divisions?

Looking better every time I check on the progress.

I'm guessing some of the pinball obstacles, and the game board are sub-division, but I could be way off on that.
