Male base and bones for the rig. Next, set-up rig, skin, pose while continuing to tweak the base.

working on the male basemesh. prob another day or 2.

Rough concept for the next piece.

fixed face :D

Fixed the hair.. i'm ok w/ it now, it ain't perfect but it'll do. :)
Certainly about 10 better than the old hair.

next a polish pass and call it done.

the goo! :D
and body paint :)

only the halo's and final touches left to go...

base!

cross section modifier + surface = win

Diffuse/spec pass on the props/hands
reduced stomach

got the rest of the stuff into marmoset w/ normal maps, and quick grayscale diffuse (except for body which has final-ish diffuse)..also started messing w/ lighting.

More work on the hair

finally in marmoset w/ a texture pass on skin + crappy hair >:
