Agree with the fusion to create a cartilidge effect, but the cartilidges and joints would have to be seperate for them to work as they should, without constantly protuding, unless I created an entirely new bone (animation bone) structure which would ruin my hours and hours of animating. Anything misaligned in the animation bone after its been created can ruin it.
The bones being skinner than usual was due to the polygon reducer I used, thanks for the shading advice esepecially around the head, though the skeleton looks alot more intimidating with almost completely black eyesockets.
Without sounding offensive, im well aware of certain mishaps with the model after I reduced its vertices, but I dont think its noticable by the untrained eye, of which many players seeing it will be. The model is 2100-2200 vertices, the helmed model and the bald model fall into the same number.
The belt is for anyone who cares about imagining the character with a scabbard or baldric, and the bandolier is for shields. Im not being historically accurate, but thats why they are there. I know some things i percieve to be practical some might not.
