@catstyle: Thanks for the feedback. @woogity: Thanks. The Obliques? Yeah I was basing them on some reference I have of a body builder, but you're right. I'll have a play with those. Cheers. @Mistry10: Well, I was going to model a large bow for him, and have a side shot of him with the bow fully flexed. But i'm open to…
