Re: give me your clothes, your boots...
downside to having my creative machine in the other room is that i have no net on it, so it's hard to come and read these crits before i do more work :P i realise the importance of shaping the whold head, but to be honest the hair is placeholder at best as that will be low polied and alpha planed later anyway. so i'm… -

Geometry is cheap, but it'll be a pain in the ass to make sure your cage properly bakes those tight crevices… -
