Hi jason,

What program did you use to create it?

By the way, you can make your image show up in the post by sticking it between [image] and [/image]

Like this avatarstudios.no-ip.org/newtank/hover4.jpg

I used blender 2.41.

I will double check the polys

Thanks for the image link information :)

EDIT::::

I have it down to 2946 Polygons still trying to get it lower

what do you think would be a safe # for this model

You'll definatly have to lower the amount of polygons on that one.
