Cheers man. You got the poly count down really low.

That was the test specification man, I've done how they told me .

Oh my! awesome sculpt man. very clean. the boots feel a little wierd to me. maybe a little "round" compared to the over all shape of the rest of the character but just my opinion. thanks for the inspiration

Master model & sculpt not a biggest fan if the texturing, as I just feel the wear areas could have just been abit more selective. But none-the-less I'm envious of what you've produced.

Quick question, now that you've creating a challenging hard surface model within Zbrush, would you say it's much faster then traditional box modelling and will this change how you now do all you hard-surface stuff?

Hondo_1 - Thanks man!

Well , it depends on your skill and speed in the traditional package. If you have a lot of experience with hard surface in traditional packages you can go with that. Personally ,for games, I think I'm gonna use Zbrush, is fast enough for me and I think I'll become even faster with it.
For now I'm not sure what you can do with the hard surface, specially if an intricate one ,for movies. There you need the mesh to be retopologized for using it with animation and texture. Than you need to crease again all your edges to obtain a good mesh when you smooth it at render. The movie situation is quite tricky, maybe someone with bigger experience can guide us with that.
