Sorry, no c&c except that I like it a lot! On a side note, I think it's funny how people post 3d characters with their arms like that, like their doing a sobriety test for the fuzz. Anyway, great character modeling!

Hey nice model, looks clean ..

artboy: they are posed like that because he has not added bones in yet, and depending on the package and such, he has not added in goal weights or skin weights, it taks more time to add in the bones and make the char deform right. thats why most peeps post with arms out cuz they are not done with the modeling or they just have not had time to add the bones

Here is a more finished version of Santa.
Is it better or what?

I have some problems with folds on the clothes.
Can somebody help?

NOT bad at all!!

I am not an expert on Mister Claus, but I do believe that the comment mentioned from before about the red boots, have a point? Black boots would definetly make him stand more solid on the ground, that is give him a heavier "foundation", roots you know!... this might sound as a lame comment, but I have deficulties figuring out what else to comment on, since he looks absolutely stunning!

well... I agree, there seem to be some problems with the folds around his waist especially! Especially the stiff fold on his stomach seems to catch my eye! In my oppinion his stomach should show trough the cloths, stretch the cloth to the extreme... I mean is Santa wellfed or what?

Otherwise, very impressive modelling!!

My girlfriend says that the legs are a bit too crooked. Is she right? Because I don't see it.

sssshhhh man... don't say that? You said WHAT? Ohhh nothing... fair enough I didn't hear anything either!!

... for gods sake man, you would've been alot better of, just leaving that little sidenote unsaid!!! I honestly thought those crooked legs were done on purpose... and I just LOVED them!!! They brought a smile to my face, and made mister Santa here, alot more adorable... I mean even I wanna sit in his lap, askin him for a huge 24 inch Sony triniton screen!!!

You said what????
