I've been working on this model for a cinematic in my game. So far it's taken me a good hour or two to make. Having a little trouble with the hands right now and finding a good program to render it in.

It would have been nice to see a wireframe overlay on your model.
Anyway, it's a very nice start !
I like the overall shape very much.

Here's the wireframe

Having a little trouble with textures though. For some reason they won't fit correctly on the model. Have any tips?

Thanks Zerrel.
For your textures troubles ... I don't know ...
Have you correctly uv mapped your model ?
How did you proceed exactly ?
If your texture doesn't fit on the model correctly, I suppose that you have to move some vertices here and there in the TCE.

Here is my map http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c246/Zerrel/eqwweqwewqwe.jpg

I usually just take the image inside the box and leave the rest out when I load it into photoshop. Could that be the problem?

No I don't see why it could be a problem AFAIK ...
But what do you mean by "the texture doesn't fit on the model correctly" ?
Is it stretched ? Not in place ?
Maybe a screenshot of the texture / model could help.

The textures show up like this when I apply them.

See how it's small and double imaged at the bottom of the shirt?

And this is the texture

This is weird.
In the TCE I suppose that the left part is "front mapped" and the right part is "back mapped" ?
If yes I really don't see why you're having such a problem ...
Did you assign your texture file to the correct object (in the case you could have more than 1 object in your model) ?

Yes, left is front and right is back. Also the pants, shirt, arms, and inner shirt are all separate objects. I have the outer shirt selected. So confused why it won't size correctly. I even try to move the texture around the shirt, but that still won't work.

Crop your texture file just around the black lines into your paint program (if not already done) and see if that makes a difference.

Yeah that did the trick, thanks. Only thing I don't get is I tried that with a previous texture, but it came out messed up. Oh well it works now =)
