Hey Pony

Yeah looks good. I think you could cut in some detail around the nostrils and eyes so you can get some wrinkles and stuff in there as its just a little bit like a bone china ornament, you know, have another 10 pence

All the best

Jango, yep it does. Happy with some details now and done fighting with a reformat. Thoughs details comeing up next.

UV map up so can see what I was up to more. Redid some becouse of not enough texture. Wanted MORE pixels on body.

All great projects succeed one step at a time. One lone step firmly placed.

Man! I wish I could texture like you brother! I am learning fanatically right now going through the tutorials. I would love to know how long you have been doing this bec your models (both this and your wip) are so clean. Keep it up and I soooo wanna see this finished.

dark-link its just a file texture, Used to spot UV streaching. I got it from dannys tool's, at www.Dannyngan.com. You can make and use your own also in photoshop, I just found dannys to be the ticket.
