Well, I finally decided to put my first model on this board for C&C, and I know I need these a lot. :P I had a lot of problems with my first model, but I'm proud of my model to be honest. No, it's not perfect (ahah, far from perfect), but I like him.

I would like you to C&C it, like I said. I really need help with my edge loops, I need to know where to put them, and where to not.

I'll also do the UVs soon, and I'll ask your help for that too.

Here it is :

Edit : BTW, tell me if you want zoom/close up of some part of the body.

Either it's perfect, or totally out of control. :P

Comon people! Help a poor little guy!

Did you forget to post the images? I'm not seeing anything.
In which case I'd say it was "totally non-existent" :D

Huh. I really posted the image in my first post. Is this the same thing to everyone else?

hey! great job for first model :thumbsup:

umm loops look fine to me.... except at the knees, you may experience problems animating/deforming later on. hopefully you can see what i mean.

everything good except his elbows need to be down near the bottom of the ribcage; they're too high I thinks....

the hat needs some work on the rims to make it look less flat...

there's something strange going on at the back of his heel, like he busted a hole in his shoe....

and, as a cowboy, maybe make him a little more bow-legged, you know?

the biggest problem is the arms... the elbow needs to come down as i said and also the forearm should come down further (down the thigh, closer to the knee).

keep it up!!!:scream:

Looks very cool, but I also notice that he has no armpits? Watch the edgeloops around that area. It'll be a nightmare to rigg if not done right.
