My yeti is gonna be abit more muscular, and have different face, and also have some adjustments to the hands and feets.
I have started on the 3rd part where i'm attaching the arms to the chest.
Is there any problems with this "set up" of polygons?

Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

is "Odd" really your dads name or is it just a nickname.

It's a norwegian name, (something norse, think it means sharp, like the thing on the front of an arrow).Kinda funny, my dad works in a big company and have many international meetings etc..
For example:
"Hello I'm Even, Are you Odd?"
"Yes Hello, I'm Odd. Nice to meet you Even."
Note: Even is also a common norwegian name. Though I think the name "Odd" will become rarer in future, because we live in a globalized world.
Ps.
I got really lucky with combining legs and chest, I think. It looks really good
(hope it "binds" well, when i'm gonna rig it)I not completely done shaping the legs, it needs some more tweaks.

I'm currently remaking the face, because I didn't get happy with the first. Soon gonna start on tutorial part 4
But need to tweak the face abit more. I'm not happy with it 
Though I want it to be abit more alien type... in a way...(I have shorter arms than the tutorial)

Because i don't know what type of polygon is best... If it matters that you have 4 edges going into each verticy, or if it's ok to have only 3 edges aslong as the polygons are 4 siders...
It was eigther this solution or having alot of the type of polygons below (which i try to illustrate with the "drawing")
Code:
