"Finessing the musculature".. i will have to remember that one.. sounds a hell of a lot better than "adding muscles"... hahaha.

THanks for explaining why you left those seperate.. its coming along very nicely i do have to say. It doesnt look like polygons anymore though... or it looksl ike you have a lattice overtop of it in the above image. Will you be using the fur tool to add the final texture? Just curious.
