Well, I was messin around today to see what I could do with my [newbie] modelling skills :P. ANYWAYS, I decided to make a lightsaber- Vader's saber to be precise. It's a real crappy model I'd imagine, since it's my first model ever. So constructive critism is greatly appreciated.

The textures are really bad....i couldnt get the UVMapping right, so ill have to check that out. All i did for those textures was use silver and black :)

If you say your a bad modeler ONE more time, I will bash your face in with a sharp wooden stick.
Really good for a first model, dude! Keep it up.

Really? I was told that the limit for weapons in JK2 is 1200, and for characters its 3000. Dont quote me on that, but well have to check it out :)

Looks nice. ;)

When you release it, release a Kyle sabre replacement and a JediMod / OmniMod mod compatible version. :)

Gosh. I never even thought about releasing the model LOL!.

It was sort of a test thing. But maybe ill work on it a bit and release a version of it later on.

I'll help you with that Brodin. If you don't want to skin it I can and I'll zip it up and host the file for you.

Ok sounds good. Figure out UVUnwrapping yet?

Unfortuneately no. That Ultimate Unwrap 3d would be perfect. If only it were free! *sigh*
