IMO optimizing is part of modeling.

I'm sorry I must be oblivious, where exactly am I wasting all sorts of triangles?

I've been playing with this a little bit. Still have a long ways to go with it.

Ewww fix that render.

It keeps getting better every time. Are you going to make a low poly and bake a normal with that?

I know I'm a bit past the "end of the year" thing with this, but... *shrug* I felt like tossing it in here anyhow.

And @Con, yes. I'm going to be baking the normal map to a lowres version of the mesh. I was playing around with it a while ago and have most of the low res done for me to bake to. That won't be for a little while though even though I really wanna do it and make it awesome :P

The background stuff is rather low res 'cause it's supposed to just be background stuff. The Jerry Cans and Shovel/Axe are a bit high 'cause they are a part of the ambulance, but... *shrug*
