Lacks detail, all it needs is to be smoother, have a texture and maybe the teeth of nibbler to make it more nibbler-ish

A game- nvidia cancelled but preserved till ive finished the current

Wow I dont know how I missed the teeth. I did have him look smoother but i had to get less polys so it will load up in darkbasic faster. Any tips on how to make it look smoother with less polys?

My first model was something like that, here my tip is to follow 3D modelling tutorials first, I can certainly see you just used 3D primitives, and you would need a surface smooth as well (not a subdivision smooth) However, I'm glad to see you have creativity Follow some basic tutorials, like extrusion etc. and then put it to good use.

lol I just couldnt get the head and eye balls right. I been working on that for the longest and kept screwing up. Actually nothing is right on my model except for the eye ball and the thing that connects to his head but I will work on this. I tried adding the middle part on his diaper and it didnt look right. So I took that out.

@Seppuku Arts i did watch the video tutorials for Ac3d. I will look for some more tutorials. Thanks for the tips.

Just had to post this because I thought i did a pretty good job.

Thanks to the cool tracing feature of Ac3d i was able to make the head fairly well. I know hes not as round as he is suppose to be but i think it will go good with the game I am making.

Picture was replaced in first post.

hey now thats a lot better, well done. There are some smoothing group issues on his eyes to complete the look, it appears you can see the texture square on the eye or the smoothing groups are showing different groups not connected by vertices.
