Low Poly modeling?
Hi there,
I am fairly new to the whole CG graphics thing but feel determined enough to go far. I have invested in quite a few DVD's to help me learn faster however, all the DVD's I have bought - Ian Joyner's Character Modeling, Eva Wild Series and Gnomon Model Human Head (Maya) - they all seem to be high poly models.
I will probably get flamed at for this silly question but I just need to know. Due to only seeing high poly models being created I don't have much knowledge with low poly. Can anyone explain or link me to a recomended online tutorial where I can learn something?
Many thanks,
Mika
