I have been showing WIP images on the "what are you working on" thread, and now that this model could be called as finished, here's its thread with nicer and more beauty images.
All the work was done during the weekends (almost a month of work), and i have had too many difficulties to finish it, several bugs and problems in my workflow due to the fucking Zapplink for Zbrush 3, modo intant crashes, max 2009 crashes mirroring envelopes, etc.
As result, i ended painting the whole model in modo (totally), except the shiled. The program is not very good for that purpose (its features are very basic but with custom pencils is enough good to go), i needed to be fixing artifacts and imperfections in photoshop constantly.
As i said, this will be my last old school model. With the actual baking tools, and all the tools for sculpt, i feel the texturing is faster. I didn't remenber how painful were to paint shadows and volumes on a model
. The next thing to finish will be a hi-res one .
About the specs, less than 6000 tris without weapon and shield, and less than 7000 with them. The model uses a pair of 2048x2048 textures and one single and small one for the upper dress (512x). Lance and shield uses textures of 1024x and 512x.
Errr, the images...
A few more images in my blog, here.
Hope you like it

I really like your character
Keep up
That is one crazy texture painting job though, I can't stop staring at all the metal armour parts
Thanks,
PD, I'm spanish too
I will put the flats and some wireframes later
wireframes:
Here are the flats. Some parts are symmetrical and i must say i didn't do a very optimized UV for a game model. Too many rectangular and T uv isles, and a dirty uv
Being a personal work and done just for fun, that minor aspect is something that does not matter at all, and it's because we can bake all the texture work in another UV layout
[Edit] you posted them just as I was writing. Very nice textures indeed!
