Re: General advice or tips for low-poly modeling?
Depends. Often it's best to refine the topology to match the flow of the silhouettes. If the model deforms at all, for example a floppy hat with ragdoll constraints, then topology flow really matters, it's helpful to have good edge flow wherever it bends. More on the wiki… -

Great tips. Re: bullet point 1, check out Understanding averaged normals and ray projection/Who put waviness in my normal map? Re: bullet 2, here's a great example: http://wiki.polycount.com/wiki/Normal_Map_Modeling#Low-Poly_Mesh -
Re: General advice or tips for low-poly modeling?
As Eric put it, the importance of edge flow depends. However, it's probably best practice to have it as good as you can, whenever you can. As for just general low-poly modeling tips, here are a few I can think of right now: - One of the most, if not the most important factor, is to keep the silhouette of the low-poly as…
