i was wondering if I can change the concept by adding stuff like the camera shown in the pic. I happen to take this pic last year

Yeah that would be acceptable. Good progress so far.

Here a little update on the high res version. Anyone can give me some tips for baking the normal from the highres to the low res model ?!? ^^
The Maya transfer map thingy isn't giving me great results...

Xnormal has given me the best results in the past. I've only tried Maya's version a few times but like you said, it always left something to be desired. Xnormal's a good tool to have regardless.

Oh man, I'm still working on the normals... didn't had much time the last days to do anything, I guess I wont be able to finish this one...

anyway, I learned some things so I guess it was worth the try

@ neenerpants:

Thanks for the info, XNormal gives me better results than the Maya tool ^^. I also tried MeshMapper which also gives decent results.
