And re-post of the wireframe view

Comments from first post:

And a wireframe view.

Compare the colors on the model to its corresponding layer; I gave some of the arm, hand and leg geometry the axe and instead put some "wrappings" on the model.

While I understand that this will make texturing harder later, I did it mainly to cut down on faces (the left hand is 408 faces; the right hand with wrappings is 278 faces!).

An additional positive note on doing this is that it created a bit of "anti-symmetry"...which I like ^_^
