I like the shape, that slope piece is a great canopy. Not having windows

I have to compliment you on the knee joints - clever use of the angled

to make the knee look like it's jointed at the... kneecap. The ball
joint also hinges the foot, very nice. Great solution to a problem I've
been having with that part (angled ball joint), I've never figured out
how to implement it in a MOC in a good way.
