are you crazy? quitting now would be silly as hell, you are literary on the edge of reaching the fun part. you might not be there yet, but the road ahead of you is def shorter then if you would turn back, that would be a lot of wasted time :/
I find that basing your model of a real life person helps a lot, you don't need to try to go for likeness but having that reference there def helps you see how forms work in real life, just a thought
Show some pictures oof your problem maybe? I think I know the problem you're having since I,ve done a dew rigs myself but I need to see screen caps just to make sure...
Nice release! Seems that modo will be very competitive in game dev (at last!) prices: modo 801 is 1495, 901 will be 1795 if you buy 801 now, you get 901 for free. Upgrade from 801(or earlier) to 901 is 495$..

I reckon they changed the internal company definition of 'engineer'. I mean, I wouldn't refer to most 3d artists, 2d artists, level designers or animators as engineers, and I doubt their actual dev teams have a ratio that high.
We should try to avoid turning this into an app vs app debate if at all possible. It starts to move away from original purpose of giving feedback on whether or not there is appeal in a 3D app designed from the get to with game dev in mind.
@EliasWick yea the moon is still there, just a little out of camera. I️ am trying to push the mood a little darker and keep your attention more on what’s around you. It Should def feel scary rather than pretty
