I assume the meshes you had to lod have not been constructed with LODs in mind? Which is a pretty common issue. Auto unwrapped and relaxed UVs, less than optimal geometry, floating geometry not baked down etc. There are lots of things that can make the job of creating lods a nightmare or a breeze
That little black box with the 714px...etc. I don't want to see these, but for the life of me I can't figure out how to disable them. Huge thanks if you've already got the solving sauce.

Hey hey, I'm looking for books on lighting theories*, environment modelling (highres/next gen if possible) practices, texturing, etc. I use Max execlusively (atm) and am interested in current-to-next gen. tech. *Game related if possible. "How to light your models", etc. Thanks!
Hey. Im about to apply for a job as a character artist at a local studio and so have been getting my site/ CD ready. I was just wondering what people thought about the work on it...if I should leave any of the older stuff off etc etc. The site is http://www.fatcap.hostultra.com
I think you should step down a few subdivision levels and really nail the shape of the overall skull etc before adding eyelids and ear detail etc. Likenesses are not easy, keep at it.
@Ashervisalis Thanks !! Its not a opacity issue hehehe. it's a GIF that represents the steps of hand painting. I removed the double modules of the mesh to avoid problems of Bake on Normal, AO etc etc. Alex.
