If you were to modernize the Loki...
I find it very annoying that you can just make something like that, as if it were no big thing, as in "Oh, yeah, I have a few ideas. Here, just give me a minute, and I'll make it for you".

Only the lower part of it, actually. But it shouldn't really be indented, just as much to affect lighting and env reflections (which is the reason it's there).

Better UV Mapping on some places.
It is good-looking geometrically.

Loki, sure looking more and more like the god of mischief to me. Excellent detailing.

Hows this for a start?  (Don't worry, the UV mapping is fixed, but you can't see anything with the textures on)

You look to be HTL-ing the Loki rather than redesigning it, as the thread title suggests.  Of course, either is a good thing.
