It's all looking pretty sketchy at the moment. Still loads and loads of tweaking to do, but here's an update. Just working on the body, then I'll add the muscles, then start detailing it. user added image

Looking really cool!

I think the head seems a bit big compared to the body right now.

Also, the seam between the shoulder and bicep seems a little too straight across.

Keep it up!

I sortof like the size of the head, it gives more of an emphasis towards it. I almost forgot about that part of the arm... A lot of that section needs tweaking, but I haven't got around to it yet.

Thanks mike, pony user added image
