watching the polycount..
How do I keep the polycount low on my models without making them look too much like a blob or a box? Is there any better program I could use? Hows Lightwave for modelling?
Help much appreciated friends.

These are the two realms of programming.

What are you using now?
A model looks the same on any program, the only way to make it look better is to raise the polycount. Learning how to hit a middle ground is a skill, not software.
EDIT: I should watch what I say, 3ds max does have an optimization function... =)

If you have Lightwave you should be fine. It''s not the market leader for games, but it is used by some developers.

Well, milkshape is a good modeler, but the best one, is the one you feel the most confortable with.

Rhino 3D is the best when it comes to 3D creation and rendering, you could always use Nurbs to make less polys
