Howdy, Hmm, I really can't say that when I model I know what I'm doing. I used to do low poly modeling for fun, and the most I ever did was about 2000 polys for one object. Then I stopped modeling for about a year, and now I'm getting back into it. I don't really know ANYTHING about high poly modeling, so I'm basically winging it as I go. Trial and Error seems to teach me best. I've been working on a guitar model this last week or two. It's a knock off of an Ovation style guitar. I'm not really accurate with the the actual guitar. I'm just looking at a bunch of guitars and incorporating different features into one guitar. I guess it's not to bad so far for primative modeling skills, and not knowing what I'm doing. As you can see, I'm not near finished. I'm working on the head, and the neck right now. I tried working on the round back, but can't seem to figure it out, as my knowledge of nurbs is very limited, well almost nonexsistant, (if anyone knows a good tutorial, or can give me some hints [I have a spline cage modeled for it], please let me know). As you see, I still have lots left to do. I think I'm heading towards the right direction though. Thanks
