Created the Chair and Kinda Pieced together the Tranformed state. Really Enjoying this Challenge, its actually forced you into modeling a completely different way, other than have a set image on screen or in your head to model to whilst your conforming you have to take what the other state is like into considoration as well.

I can't wait to see this transform. It is looking good, nice work.

Yeah, nice work Bowring_2002 - I really like those jumbo tyres - they look really cool.

Nice work Bowring_2002. I am just not sure about his hands - they look a little awkward. I think you need to seperate the thumb from the rest of the fingers to give it it's own space and angle and also make the hand a little bit bigger to go with the rest of your model. Keep up the good work.

Cheers for the Comments Arran. Im also not exactly happy with the hands, im currently sketching out some new designs for legs and arms, im finding it very difficult to design legs atm as they have to be able to fold up and collapse inside the body :headbang:

I have to say though im really enjoying the challenge and have really learnt a few new techniques which i would usually apply. Espically as a moddeler i have to model for once with animation in mind which is a challenge in itself
