Hey all, sorry theres been no updates for awhile. I've been very busy with this game.. lots of letters to send, models to make, people to hire...

Anyway, yeah, It's NO where near finished, I'd say so far im about 7% done. And yes it's alot of polys, around 23,000 Tri's (Alyx of HL2 was around 8,000 Tri's)

98% of the time I do models for games so are no where near this detailed. I have to say, doing low poly stuff for games is ALOT harder than doing high poly stuff.

Just think. You've got to make a character. One person can make a character with 5,000 polys, the other can make a character with 200,000 polys. The one that can use 200,000 will have a much easier time.

heh, i always look back at charcters from the PS1 days and wonder how they did it. Lara croft and Solid Snake were always instantly recognisable yet it must have been a few triangles for the face and a blurry texture put on top to get some detail into it[rofl]
