So how does everyone here like my 3D objects? David? Blorx? Jeff? Rkn? Zip?

Let's just say that there is some room for improvement.

Your trench coat guy looks ok. There is a noticeable seam between the arms and body though, and the details of the arms and neck would be better suited for a normal map than actual polygons.

it would be better if you were to finish the head first...

I didin't connect the vertexs from the coat arms to the body part of the coat due to lack of vertexs and edges in the main body. I desided not to go with a normal map because I don't know how to make one and also, I wanted to see what wrinkled clothes in polygons would look like.

ok. Is there any nice tutorials for blender? I'd like to move on to Blender from Wings now...

I'm sure there are, and google seems like a wonderful place to start looking for them.

a simple edge bevel could fix that, i tdont know maya so it might be named bevel, chamfer or fillet.

o, if anyone wants to check out a free version of 3ds max, and yes this is compltetely legal. the only downfall is there is no render feature andlimited materials. but the modelling is full. www.gmaxsupport.com

Nayr, just a side-note but...Blender can be hard, it takes time to get used to the up-down modelling, it's easier to learn side to sde first...I still haven't learned how to go without using the meta objects, though
