    the object to model is a kart racer with a character on it (dont mind ripping of existing characters like mario or crash bandicoot).

    specs:

    512 polies

    1x256 texture for the body and character (that means both use the same texture) and 1x64 for the wheels

    all textures can use alphatesting/blending but NO normalmapping or specularmasks

    this contest shall end on 7th October.

    here are some pictures as inspiration:

    Isn't one 256x256 texture a bit small for bother a character and the vehicle. Maybe two 256x256 maps, one for each?

    How about people stop complaining about the texture and polycount limits in a low poly contest?
