hi this my first attempt to create a model in maya (work with it since 3 months and maya is my first 3d app, so excuse my noobness :) and my bad english too)
the model is a puppet created for an university project (a little music video complete in maya). the style should be a little bit surrealistic.
the model is poly modeled out from a box

I don't know how you would like to let it look..but when it is supposed to have the anatomy of a human...you really have to work on the face....
the chest and legs are to boxy.
