Ok, here goes my first SMC submission:
I'm not sure why I thought up a dumb little fish that swims towards you and explodes, but well, there he is!
Work flow:
Created a sphere primitive and extruded the tail and bomb from there. The eyes were made from separate spheres. The head fin is an extruded spline. The bomb's light and wires are from cylinders.
Help:
So, I think this took me entirely too long for the result I got. More importantly, though, looking at its wire frame, it seems very inefficient. I'm noticing that everyone elses' polys look a lot "cleaner" and not as many. Does anyone have any advice on how to achieve that? Can anyone point me to some good modeling tutorials? Also, that head fin got somehow warped in my "welding" and "adjusting". Anyone have any thoughts on that part? Critiques are not just welcomed, they are strongly encouraged and needed!
