Gallery Submission: Low poly man

Here is my ultra low poly man, Totalled up, I think he is 1 Poly, but I havent modelled the ears yet user added image. It is my first finished model. I textured him in Photoshop. I think it is good enough for the gallery, but some of you people with bad taste may not. Here is an orthographic view rendered in Mental Ray with final gather and G.I.

Here is my wire....I hope this helps all of you lesser people looking to find some clean geometry. This is as clean as it gets folks. I dont know if I will be able to do the ears. This guy is already pushing my machine to the limit.
