Hey hey everyone, nice turnout so far definately.

My hero is Courier(changed to avoid trademark issues) Man!

I work as a shipper/reciever, and we were shipping soemthing off across canada and the client wanted to use a certain courier. The guy came in and it was hard to hold back the tears of joy. Skinny French-canadian guy, curly mullet covered by old baseball cap, dirty tanktop (March in western canada + tanktops just dont add up), and cokebottle glasses. It was pure gold.

He drives a ratty old cube truck and saves the world from late freight.

I've been too lazy with this challenge, I need a good kick in the ass, oh well.

Gonna rebuild the head, whats there now is just for general proportions. Not sure how I will go about the hair yet. I think his arms are too long.

Boots are done, the model is anyway. Good progress today I must say, not as much as I should have done though.

Haha, cokebottle glasses.:applause:
Dirk, maybe you could drape a cape or jazzy jacket on his back, to super-ify him up:thumbsup:

Finally got a chance to get goin on this again, I think i've got the body proportions nailed down.

All's left to do on him is the mullet, of which I have no idea how to go about? Any ideas? Im not sure if XSI's hair would suffice, it may look out of place on such a toony guy.

Comments as always, welcomed and encouraged.

I sincierely apologize for my absence of late, i've been so busy with work and such, no time to update. But I am heading down the home stretch. Courier man is done, and his truck should be unveiled later tonight or tomorrow. Thanks all for comments.
