Hiya!
This is my first post here. I'm modalling a Police Van called Victor and a Police car called Paul for an animation aimed at 5 - 7 year olds. I have only done the modalls so far... what do you think?

Like it!

Nice one Yikes, I really like your style, should be perfect for that age group, have you done any textures yet? I think these will be quite important to the final look, keep up the good work.

Textures

Hiya

Thanks for the encouragement! I haven’t done any textures for them yet, to be honest i'm struggling with them. Know any good tutorials for unwrapping and texturing?
