I sounded like a n00b in that thread. I just looked over some tutorials, practiced some AA and reverse AA, and all that good stuff. So I just got the basic part of the upper body of a robot... thing completed, and started using AA on one of the arms. (really jagged looking) http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y37/cloud...240/robot-1.jpg The one on the left has two layers of AA, and the one on the right has three. It is still looking pretty jagged, even with the extra layer, but if I add another one, won't it start looking pillow shaded? I mean, it's already starting to with the one on the right. Is there any way to fix the jagged look? I haven't started shading or anything like that, so don't point out the obvious.

Gold Leader: I'm just using the left arm to check if I'm doing anything horrible with the spriting, shading, or AA. That said, I fixed the AA up a bit, and shaded it. I started shading it with four colors, but they looked way too similar, so I tried it with three. I kinda like the way it turned out..
