haha well originally i was just making a tongue-in-cheek comment acknowledging that modelling isn't my specialty, hence "i'm not a modeller". i'm as much a modeller as i am a skinner or icon artist :3 jack of all trades, master of none

Well in that sense *I'm* a modeler/skinner/etc, lol...
First question: did you hand make that nether ray mesh (and in what program)?
Because when I see a "non-modeler" pump out a perfect little Handclaw-quality mesh like that, I pay attention.
I must learn your ways.

dunno who handclaw is, but yes i did. i used mdlvis for the mesh.
there's not much you can learn from me that you couldn't learn from reading tutorials, practicing a lot and using reference pics.

Handclaw is a cool dude; I'd be more surprised you haven't heard of him, but he keeps relatively quiet & has been essentially inactive here for years (very active over at SoL forums).

He was working on a "5th-race-addition/campaign" like I am, only for Goblins instead of Trolls. He worked with Norinrad on some stellar models here (Bombardier, Servant, Hobgoblin, etc), and had loads more he was hoping to finish, but never did. Quite sad.

A talented modeler in his own right, he had an uncanny ability to crank out a quick mesh that was always unerringly 'Warcraft-y'. He'd even color the faces like you did to give an idea of the final product (which he could also *texture* unerringly Warcraftly).

So yeah, you doing that is a big tip-off. You are the reincarnated Handclaw, come to reap the sinners.
J/k. But seriously. MdlVis?? OK, I 'get' extrusion (and by that I mean I have touched it twice & phailed both times), but it has no primitives; how do you make a shape? Heck, a single face/polygon; I try doing it & it freaks out on me.
