Hi all, I am wondering if anyone can shed some light ( no pun intended ) on why I am getting these strange white lines in my scene.

In Maya 2012 I have rotated the vertex normals so they are all pointing up and slightly out. I have explicit normals checked on the import. I have the…
Nice! Now you're getting somewhere. I see big leaps in the areas that needed improvement. I think you're mostly on the money for the mesh. The arms might be a touch long, if you bring the arms down so they rested vertical along the body the tips of the fingers should line up around mid thigh. Right now they look like they…
