Re: Cyberpunk Female Character WIP
I've further refined the forms and added the hard surface parts modelled in maya. I think It's time to move on to the next stage, it would be better to add more details in texturing.

Getting Weapons Models Out For TF2 And Into 3ds Max
I can't seem to find info on this subject anywhere. All I want to do is find the model of the Flamethrower for the Pyro in TF2 in the source sdk folder or tf2 folder or wherever it resides and get it into Max.

Advice about workflow + problem with black faces
Hello guys! It's my first ever post on polycount (yay, celebrate with me!) so I'm really sorry if I placed it in a wrong thread.
