The quality on the video is really really bad, is it possible to get a better version uploaded or could you upload the file somewhere?

DarkBoost: Do you have another link for higher quality video? Anyway, do you have model file? I need to look at it for comparison.

I have recently recorded a new version of this tutorial, this time demonstrating how to model a Low-Poly but also a High Quality model.
