question: what polycount goes with how many loops?
i have to make a character with a maximum of 1600 tris for the the valkyrie profile challenge. my wip thread is here , no modeling yet. i was wondering, should i build the arms and legs of 6 sided cylinders or 4 sided or how much is appropriate for a model like that? and maybe to make the thread a bit more interesting,… -
Re: question: what polycount goes with how many loops?
The only thing I really consider for characters when I modeling is where I need the seams to go and then match the silhouette. I try to leave as much polys for the head as I can. I would use about 1000 tris for the body and the rest for the weapons and gear. That contest look sweet. It's best if you experiment but try six… -

think about it this way....it's easier to delete than add. so if you aren't happy w/6....cut it down some. make it look good first...then cut where you feel you can. -

hmm, I often optimise as I go. may be the wrong way to do it. I don't mind though. -
Re: question: what polycount goes with how many loops?
ow thats a good one, 'couse now when modeling i was all fixed on getting a low polycount, and the modeling so far sucked... thanks! (i had been blocking out stuff) -
Re: question: what polycount goes with how many loops?
lol I guess your right, but i was just wondering how you professional guys do it. Thanks I think I'll just have to try for myself :P (I'll go for 6 sided :P yeah!) -

thanks! @Psych0: whoops! your right :P @conte: nah.. i think 20 sided is a bit too low... maybe i should have a go at about .. 50? -
Re: question: what polycount goes with how many loops?
do 20 sided hands and 20 sided legs. last polygons you can spend on head. -
Re: question: what polycount goes with how many loops?
The required count is 1300 tris by the way, unless the rules have changed. I also prefer to optimize instead of adding, just check the silhouette and slash thru them polys!. -

Japhir, yeah, 20 is low, 50 is fine you get it:)
