new to modelling, advice appreciated: ninja

Hi guys, just started learning 3d modelling a few days ago. I haven't attached the shoulders to the body yet, and the sword on the right is just because i haven't removed the mirror modifier yet (i'm using Blender). I'm making models for a 3d game I'm writing and want them to be reasonably low poly count.

Would appreciate some advice on my model below.




Thanks :poly122:

I'm not a character artist, so I'm not going to attempt a critique, there are plenty of other people here who can give much better advice than myself. However, I'd suggest posting wireframes and shots from a few different angles, and probably get up close to the model so people can see the topology easier.

appears to be a pretty good start

Looks like a pretty solid start.

Have you watched this tutorial by any chance?

If you can afford it I would highly recommend it, contains many immensely helpful modeling tips&tricks and topology how-to's.

Good luck.

Looks good so far, but if you're going for a ninja, I see a few inaccuracies.

I took the liberty of doing a paintover for ye:

Can we see wires pretty soon, most important part of a game model is the topology. But so far looks really awesome for only a few days of modeling experience... right on man, excited to see how it turns out.
