You can combine mutilple renders into one final render, like jb did above. Also, you can give off a few render shots and views.. thats fine user added image

Oh, and btw.. looking great JB!! Man, that model is awesome.. just i think it needs some fine tuning and also... why dont you do a poly soften? (Edit Polygons>Normals>soft/hard>Option box> all soft>enter) user added image

.. it will smooth out those hard poly edges without moving a single vert user added image

and

ok 2 more hours of work for a total of 5 hourse and 54 minets.

I have made inprovments to the body a lot.
but was finishing up the face and wanted to see what was thought. I will look a lot better with hair of corse. and theres a little more detail needed around the eyes and nose.
but I think its got the shape I was trying to convay in the pic's.
Child like. inocence and a bit sad.

and I think I got the big manga eyes to look right.

C+C welcom.

- I just work in low-poly to begin with because there aren't as many verts you have to worry about. I smooth it every now and then to see what it looks like then I undo it. I also only work on 1 half - the other half is just an instanced copy user added image

Anyway, the fine-tuning is coming along quite well i feel. I've added the apperance of some neck tendons and some skin folds - there is still quite a bit more to come. Here's an update (smoothed).

Oh right - softening the normals... I must have misread it. I have tried that but it does not have the same quality to it.

Its just so it looks nice in low poly mode. And if you were going to keep it low poly, its essential. Looking good JB. Is his mouth gonna open? I think he would look alot younger/smaller if his eye were much larger. Don't know if its too late for that tho....

Pony awesome man you're sooo fast.

). But I may still make the eyes bigger as you suggested (thanx user added image

).

Pony, that's AWESOME work for the amount of time you've spent!!!
