Nice work so far Eagle, you might want to round out the front of the body and legs a bit more to stop them looking too square- he needs to be a bit wider round the waist etc.

Why is black cooler btw?

Nice start Morpher! user added image

Eagle for the trousers you might want to think about adding some creases and making them less skin tight. For the creases Mike has a great tutorial on this site on creating them on polys objects I recommend it- attached is a quick pic showing how you can do it.

Pic 1 shows the basic shape with the 'crease' added using the split poly tool to make 3 new edges on the object. Pic 2 shows the top and bottom edges being scaled to create a 'crease', you can also scale the middle one and move all three around to create contours. Pic 3 are some trousers I made which I really went to town on crease wise to practice the technique- these were for the last challenge and are leather biker trousers- you don't need that many creases on normal ones but it shows the technique off- see how the edges follow the contours of the legs. Not perfect by any means as I made it (!) but you get the idea.
