Cake

[dalmanna]

is that safe on the normal map diet?

Well the problem is, that it doesn't look like 32200 (!) polies (tris?).
If one takes a closer look, he'll notice all the little leafs of the strawberrys are kinda curved and everything. I think one or two tris would do for those little blades. Besides, the strawberrys look like tomatoes, cause they're missing a texture (sorry in case it's a tomatoe cake xD)
You can also save lots and lots polies by using a normalmap for the candles. For the stems of the cherries you can also use alphamapped planes. If you have done that, you can waste some more polies on the cake itself and the icing. :)
I mean, it looks sweet, but it's too lowpoly for a highpoly-normalmap-reference and too highpoly for a game, in case your game isn't about cakes ;)

agreed on teh tomatoes, not sure if people put those on a cake in that fashion, but o well, also isn't 32k polys a little high for game art? for a cake at least? hopefully 2 models come out of the cake followed by an armed midget

Well aren't tomatoes a fruit? So it might work in a cake...

hopefully 2 models come out of the cake followed by an armed midget
If I had a choice of what pops out of the cake it sure wouldn't be an armed midget.

Looks tasty.
