I'm not an artiest and I don't care to be one. I need to make a demo using my game engine and have been looking for some material I can rip from another game to show what I can do. I've been trying to rip character models from Half life 2 and other source games but I can't get the animations or skeletons to import in to blender. Any ideas where I can get character models to work with?

Did you look here?

You could also make your own. I'm a complete inept at 3D modeling, but after just a day of playing with Wings 3D I managed to create this nifty tank:
It's a really easy to use program.

Do you really think I've not tried that? If you think it's that easy then find a model which is fully animated for a game and post a link.

Your model fails to impress me, it looks similar to something I would do in 5 minutes.
For instance:

If you're going to be a dick about it, CodaKiller, I and a few other moderators will be entirely happy to suspend/ban your account. Otherwise, try a more civil tone.

Your reading skills fails to impress me, did you notice the part where I mentioned I was a complete inept at 3D modeling?

I'm sorry that interpretation was not intended, I was simply saying that there is much more to it then the modeling. I find animation to be the hardest part to get right.

That was not actually directed at polymorphed, I find janta posting a link to a google search to be unhelpful and kind of rude... I may have mis directed my discontent a bit though.

I will try to be more civil but you most understand that my tone is entirely interpretated and does not reflect my true temperament.
