you can skin it or model it,your choise.for the modeling i would use a plane and edit into a strap.

See the bands on the leg bracers? Thats how you would model things like belts etc.

 

[DMW]

well thanks for the pic,it did help a bit.*edit*,forgot to ask,would it be better if i skinned it on?or should i model it on and skin it like that?

 

[Envee]

Model, then skin it. It will give it depth, where as skinning it, it would look like a strap, but from the front, it would be flat.

[Ravendust]

Upload it to Imageshack and post the link here or in your sig.

the downside to modelling them like that is, they are virtually impossibible to animate without them clipping back into the body

 

[Mr. Phonso]

hmm what i would do is cut out the shape of the straps onto the body and the extrude, that way the straps cant clip as its a part of the model and not hanging loosely on thin air

Cause the pic is too big? you should make your own thread. cause you're going off-topic and it's considered spam (you even made me spam now -_-)

 

[Mr. Phonso]

i hope your not expecting to use that wallpaper as a signature, its a miricle that you used a thumbnail link from imageshack actually

mmm sander beat me
