thanks for the comments and advice guys and you are probably right echo red about the fur i rushed it a little bit:bandit:
I am a little bit further with the body, but there's one thing that concerns me a little bit and that's the proportions.
It looks like his body is to small (or head to big it's just the way you look at it:p ).
But when i load a picture in photoshop yoda's body is approx. 2,5 /3 head's tall in maya i'm about 3/3,5 heads high with the body.
Maybe it's just that i haven't moddeled his claws and paws yet and not yet made his clothes, which will give him more volume.
or that he's not standing straight up(these things happen when you're 900 years old)
i've attached a smooth and rough model
