This is my first original model without using a tutorial, I hopefully wanted to make a short ani with this but I'm not sure, still learning any CC is more than welcome

What I have so far:

try hitting the minus key... the "+" and "-" key controls them

not at pc with maya to tell you which one goes bigger and smaller but i assume minus key goes smaller

Very cute character!! My only comment right now (coming from years of experience as a traditional animator) is as follows:

On the side view of the character, he seems unbalanced. Perhaps you can select all of the vertices/CV's above the knee area and move the whole character forward until he looks better balanced (right now, it seems he might fall over backwards).

I wouldn't mind seeing a wireframe of his face either!

Keep us posted and thanks for sharing!

Thanks Jim I'll get to doing that, this is, as I said, my first orginal model so the tips are very helpful

Added arms and hands user added image

And for the wireframe do you want the poly wireframe or the subD? Or should this thing be a smooth poly? As always I am user added image

I think I might have made a BooBoo, should I not have attached all the parts together?
