Tony this is looking really swell!

The head seems to have alot of personality to it, I like it, I also really
like the smooth legs you have there too, and the feet have a awesome shape
to them.

oo, new hand design from what I can tell, looks cool,

I like the shoulder dishes too, neat touch,

The pics are blurry, but from hwat I see it looks great!

keep it up
