thanks guys, he's gonna be wooden and steel (steel lower legs and a couple of other bits but mainly wooden).

I was away this weekend but got a couple hours playing done (on the train again) - even though I lost some time when it didnt save correctly - ouch! Here's the bot without shoulderpads so far. General detail needs adding to the head/arms/legs and then it'll be proper detail time
Some influence on the shape is coming from a gorilla type look but the detail on the back is still going to stay quite blocky and not too organic.
