I was wondering why all the models in minecraft are blocks, I understand that model curvature may be difficult in java, or cost processing power, but why no hexagonal or octagonal prisms and such?
I suppose it could just be the style of minecraft to have everything constructed of blocks, what do you think?
Have you heard of anyone making models that were non block derived?

That's how minecraft is. It's part of it's charm. It's supposed to be blocky. Also I don't think it lets you have skins with anything transparent (basically you'd have to make a part of the square transparent so only the circle of the head or w/e shows, but it won't let you do that)
