New mod maker and valve fan

[Niten]

Hi fellows! :O Nice to be part of this community. I have been lurking here for awhile and decided to register so I too can post here. I'm working for entertainment industry as an 2d and 3d artist. I'm intrested in mod making and I have done some level design with Hammer. Currently I have plans to make an small respectable mod for half life 2 and I'm in need for help for it. Does somebody know how polys are the character models in halflife 2? I just want know what kind of poly budjet I'm going to have when I begin modeling. :hmph:

* Soldiers: 4682
* Police: 3852
* Resistance: 4976
* Zombie: 4290
