Questor, I use lightwave almost exclusively for modelling & generally optomize poly counts as I go along (lw has the ability to work in up to 10 layers concurrently so I can change individual parts before welding it all together :-) Just to give you an idea of where I'm at this is a finish render of the exterior, props, & interior floor. So far including 4 900X900 textures & templates it weighs in at 1.95 mb zipped
