In most games, the only kind of animation that works is that which is animated with bones, so dynamic simulations wouldn't work in a game's export process.

Capes and such like that are usually done using a bone chain or sequence. The cape you have there, while it would work, I'd recomend simplifying the geometry considerably.

just a little thing the arrows in the quiver are the wrong way, you dont want your hero grabing the arrow head cutting himself.

I suppose, but animation isn't a requirement for this challenge.

MIke, do you think that this hoody is better than the one in the recent picture i posted before in this thread.
you recommended that I should simplify the mesh considerably.
is this considerable enough?

yes.....well i am sort of in the process of doing so but to be honest i am not much of a good texturing person.
the UV's came out fine but i think i need more experience in PHOTOSHOP 7.0 .......

here is a render of what i got so far with the texturing.
be honest.....user added image does it look as bad ass i think it isuser added image ??????
I know there is a little or alot of interpenetration around the model.....I know alittle tweaking will fix that....

to be honest it reminds me of my first game model which I did pretty much one year ago, the textures do need to be defined some more ie: folds, muscle etc, but that comes with time and to answer your question
No, it does not look as bad as you think, it looks pretty good, just a little bit more tweaking and it will look even better.

here is a tip: for folds I use the burn and dodge tool, I also use them for defining muscles.

good luck
