#2 - 3D Modelling

Ok, Gonna kick this forum back into gear. Er, try to

Brief:
The aim of this activity is to improve your low poly modelling by creating a character with a (relatively)low number of triangles.
Areas to aim for -
Proportions - Does your character look believable.
Poly Density/useage - How even the distribution of triangles are on your mesh. How efficiently can you use your triangles.
Shape - Does your mesh have a good sense of mass, and a nice silhoutte.
Animation - Will your characters limbs deform well.

Guidelines:
Create a human character within 1000 triangles.
You are free to use any reference you choose.
Upon completion, post renders - and a .3ds if you are willing in a thread titled

'Activity #2 3d *yourname*' Insert your name where obvious.

Yup, probably, I may dig up one of my old low poly models for people to do.. As I recall, some had some awful UV jobs though hehe :)
