How I make an Icon model

[Thrikodius]

As some may have noticed I have made a few attatchment models, using an Icon as the main texture. For some reason there have been cases where people think I'm an awesome modeler because of that. So I have recorded 3 videos where I make one of those models to show how simple it really is.

The first part is where I make the main shape. In the other parts I make effects and such stuff.
Now make sure you have some free time when you watch these cause total playing time is like an hour. Lyckilly they come in pieces.

Oh and... sorry for the low quality but it's as good as I can get it.

youtube 'em (or use vimeo if you want better quality/a different site)

People like watching stuff in their browsers if they can't avoid it

Also shouldn't this be in the tutorial section? I dunno.

Thanks Thrikodius. I always wanted to learn using MDLVIS.
Although I don't know everything about effects.

It wasn't meant as a tutorial, more as a demonstration of how I do it. And I couldn't youtube them cause they are too long and I haven't found a good tool that I can use to speed them up.

I guess the tutorial section would make more sense as you explain something through your demonstration^^

Well, I understand what he's doing, but I have already some experience with Milkshape, but I guess beginners, who never heard of a "Vertex" or a "Face" wouldn't understand it.
