Looking really good!
Btw, since you are already pretty deep into UDK modelling, I hope you don't mind if I ask something.
I imported my ww1 cartoon gun model into UDK, but for some reason it reduses the texture resolution. The original is 2k, and I dont know how much it optimized, but I can't read a text I put on the texture.
Is there some setting that would help me, or there's nothing to do, it just optimizes it?
