Thanks Jason. I wasn't sure if I should add another major color in there just
to break it up and make it more interesting. But you like it so I guess it
worked. I was looking at the click hinge wing groin piece and I think that it
adds a nice contrast to the shoulder wings. I dunno. As for the GlaGla
armature...yes it is too heavy to really support more dynamic poses. The arms
are okay but the pin in the thighs is really loose and he does the splits at a
certain point. But I can say that the ball joints in the shoulder, hips and
ankles are pretty tight. I didn't even have to reinforce the suckas! :-D

just like the whole enchilada!
