Just one question, how are the knee plates built? Or, how are they bent? I see nothing they are attached too, so how will they move when the knees are bent?

His knees are in the gap between the thigh plate and the shin-guard.

Well, that I know. But I wonder how they will bend when he bend his knees. Will they follow the thigh or chin plate? And how will they follow, how is this piece connected to the others? It has to be for it to be able to even sit there.

Torus is right. That is where it is connected. Who ever rigs it can put in extra geometry if they want. Speaking of rigging, who will do that.

PS I haven't forgot about the marine. I have a couple of changes I want to make to the model before anyone rigs it. OK

That makes no sense at all :P
I mean how are the "knee plates" connected. I know they HAVE to be connected somehow, and I know that the knees are in the gap between the thigh and shin plates (that's obvious), but HOW will they move. Like for instance, will they follow the shinguard or the thigh plate? Or will they be connected to both and that knee plate will be in the middle when the leg is bent?

Yup, that does it. So it goes with the shinguard. I did speculate it was with that piece, but the angles make me uncertain.
You're not familiar with skinning and rigging or you just not up to do it? I have never rigged a character for a game before, but I assume it's something like that. Although does it react to paint weights or just rigid bind?

Yeah I have rigged a model before, but never for a game.

Is anyone going to rig this? Because I can't.
