>Your model here is getting quite a bit towards that area of potentially being a better fit for sub-d modeling instead.

Chris,

If you want to try sub-d modelling, then you have a couple of software options among which Hexagon is currently at a 100% discount: http://www.daz3d.com

I don't know Hexagon, I am a die-hard Silo fan, but if Hexagon works as Silo for background images to model after, then look this foreground utility as well: http://www.digitalartistguild.com/mi...tyExplain.html
