Tabuu's Custom Model Closet. K. Rool, textures started

[Tabuu Forte Akugun]

Hola, everyone. Tabuu here. Yeah, from here: http://forums.kc-mm.com/index.php?topic=37855.0

After a LONG AND PAINFUL wait and process, I have 3DS Max 2012, and I'm using it to do some importing of my own. I've also taken to custom model making.

NOTE: I DO NOT take requests for this either. I'll do favours for others every now and then, but that'll be only if I'm very interested in the character. Just like for PSA. I'll wait till I've mastered this to the best of my ability.

Custom model plans:
None at the moment.

Looks very nice so far! *subs* Can't wait to see more of your models. :)

 *facepalm*Dude. I completely forgot about Lip. I'm so sorry about that.

[Tabuu Forte Akugun]

Thanks, Ro. ;D

I'm curently working on her legs up to her... well, crotch. Everything is going great so far, I think.

*facepalm*Dude. I completely forgot about Lip. I'm so sorry about that.

lol I'm not rigging her. I was just trying to make a new model haha.

[Archer(AkenoS3)]

Lol... Giving in models, huh? Well, I'll see where this is going.

[Tabuu Forte Akugun]

Well, I finished her legs and skirt.

I got scared for a sec, 3DS max crashed while optimizing the model (a test I was experimenting with that only increased poly count)

What's the max poly limit for Brawl models again? I'd like Lip to be still looking good, but be under that limit, lol.

I'll show another preview tonight.

Staying under 1,200 is best, don't remember the actual max, but the character you're replacing, the texture sizes and the file size all factor into the game crashing, but again staying under 1,200 is pretty good. Also that looks great so far. :)

Um.... I hope you mean 12,000.......

And thanks!

I'm adding Brawl's Lip's Stick model for her to hold it when I'm finished. I added folds to her skirt and torso, and I'm starting her shoulder "pads" from her top.

EDIT: New preview!

[StupidMarioFan1]

Yah I meant 12k, was tired when I posted that. xD

[Tabuu Forte Akugun]

Lol, OK good!~ XD

I'm currently making her head and hands, as well as removing edges to decrease the amount of faces, but not too much. I don't want her to look like crap either, you know?

Once I finish Lip's model, I'm going to give rigging it myself a try. Then I could make a character PSA all by myself. Yea, this Lip is for a PSA. And if I can't rig, I'll try out TurboChaos' take on the old model.

Hey, Lip! Looking forward to see how this turns out! Can't believe I didn't notice it before. XD

Good luck, though!

[Rosetta-Hime]

Dang, you've been at it for 2 days, and you're already better than me lol. But Lip looks amazing, BTW.

Hah, thanks. For both things. hehe

Well, I wouldn't say that. Your Shadow Queen model looks damn good, to be honest. But I AM amazed at how much easier than I thought this is. But I still need lots of practice. The hands and hair are gonna be a challenge.

[StupidMarioFan1]

I could burst your bubble of fun, but I'm not that mean. You're doing anything wrong, I just mean in the "easier than I thought" area. lol

Anyhoo, last preview for tonight. I modelled her hair, earrings, head and even hair ribbon
