The presentation on the first image is really cool The model is good for a start but theres a lot to improve Try using more polys in general and make the shapes as close to the original as you can, which will give you a far better model overall.

These sub dividers are non destructive and can be switched on or off, making it possible to rig and animate a lower poly version of the…

Saidin: Good question, there isn't a specific number of polies I work with, but there is a way I manage not having to deal with it chugging all the time. I apply meshsmooth modifiers to the stack and turn it off in viewport and work with my base, this is good for me because I have a pretty good grasp of how objects will…
