the fact that it is WIP is why people are critting it, people wouldnt crit a finishd model, WIP means you sare still working on it and you need to know whats wrong with it, if you dont want crits just say it, but by making a WIP thread you are going to get bad crits every now and then, especially with a model with just as many flaws as it does polys, (too many)
if it was my model id completely restart it, youve already wasted too many polys, fixing the huge amount of poblems with it wont be very easy with 9 million vertexes between point A and point B,
we cant make a better model?, a cube at this point would be as impressive, (yes i know its WIP, thast why im telling you it sucks now so you can fix it in the future when its not so WIP) and a101 can out model you any day of the week, and ive only seen 1 of his models (opposed to about 5 of yours) to come to that conclusion
the front proportions are horrible, look at a few pictures, the head and hair is mishapen as well,
the side proportions are as bad as ive ever seen, what the hell were you thinking when you made it like that, his chest is flat, which is just fine for a low poly model, but this one is not, this is FAR from that, shape his chest,..like a chest and give his armor the shapes around the edges that it needs,
i think you expect way too much from the HL2 engine, using the same excuse as you, you havent played it yet either, so you dont know if it can or not, just cuz you can use more polys doesnt mean you should put more than necessary into a model, that model has more wasted polys than it does actual needed ones, thus my "if it was my model id completely restart it" above,
though its not my models and not my call to say restart it, its what i reccomend,
and if you dont want crits say so, if you make a WIP thread and post a pictue of a model with that amount of flaws, your just asking for some harsh comments, that was your mistake
