The jegs are in the wrong position for a quadraped. You have bilt the legs like you would for a human.
They should be on the side of the body as opposed to under it.

Joop- hmmm... the model is good- but the normal map KILLS it. Its at the point that it's ok, but I bet that 2-3 more day's work would make it awesome.

Sorry man. But you are doing good. You certaily have gotten much better at Maya then you were when you made that Doom 1 Pink Demon user added image!

Good job, Joop, good job. user added image

I want to see this animated.
