Here is the link to the Steampunk challenge wip thread to view all the earlier wips.Linkage
Anyway, after my PC crashed I had to go back and redo some of my progress that I lost. I lost most all the head that I had started and some body work in the upperbody and legs, and since I have not had the chance to redo the head, I put a place holder in for reffernce with the rest of the anatomy. Anyway, I made changes in the legs, hips, and widened the ribcage just a little bit. Everything is really looking good now.
I still have alot of work to do on the shoulders and neck area though.

is there a reason we don't get to see the back of the head?

That head is just a place holder till I build a better one. I realize the temp looks wierd from the back because it has no back, but right now it's mainly for me. It serves 2 purposes. It tells me how big the head needs to be, and it helps me keep the rest of the body topolgy in check.
severinianthony- Showing the inner mechanics of the head is a very good idea! I will consider that when I start rebuilding the head, thanks!
