oh I wish I was good at modelling as I wouldn't be sat doing web programming as a day job

cheers for the comments Joopson, mmoore5553 and THX1138
It was fairly easy to get blocked in with the samurai body as a base and the sketches I had. Starting from scratch would have been harder (and there are some unresolved areas in the head you can't see)

I still need to finish the other models for the challenge though
