coming along nicely. My only suggestion is doing something with the feet, they look a little too big.

Here are a few occlusion renders. They really bring out some of the detail.
A question to mike- How low is low poly. So far this is 2500 faces (Unoptimised). Is that good or should i try to lose some?
