thanks guys!

I thought I could get the entire model done in a day but I ran into a few difficulties as I didn't know how I was going to deal with the hands.

Perfecto: I'd like to animate it transforming. for the competition it might just be a real crude transformation (maybe just keyframe from start position to end position with just default stuff). I probably wont get time to get into lots of detail, but there will be something done for the joints and eyes.

Still not sure where to put the mouth... it will have a belly button though.
