Well, i understand you, that there is a line between criticism and mocking ;)

Buuuut, i have to agree, this is very basic yet. I mean, the guy has almost no face, his feet are ... well, two brown circles.

I dont know wether you did paint this with a wacom or if this is a "real" 3D modell, just rendered with some funny toon shader. (I mean, i wouldnt know, if you didnt say it was lightwave).

No offense, but till now, theres not much i can correct or criticise. Maybe you should post a wire.

Simple characters can be cool too, but then mostly because they are rigged and animated, so the viewer doesnt focus on the modeling skills ;)

regards, heipei

wellllp. in the original planning of my character, i drew him to have no eyes
the cap was intended to cover his eyes.

this is my first human character model i have ever attempted to make and one of my first in lw.

i guess i misunderstood what "work in progress meant" cause i'm feeling you guys are treating it like it should be a final work. do you not think I knew the feet sucked? did you not think i had no intention of fixing them?

my whole intention of making this character in the first place was so that i could use it in a character rigging video tutorial set I have

haha, i'm sorry about that, ya'll... i was kinda defensive of my character cause i worked hard on him but i see now that it's not that great. but i'm still working on him... i took off that particular toon shader, it started to annoy [me.] still working on his shirt (the collar is kinda weird.) The hat is intended to cover his eyes. I'm going to rig him as soon as I can.
