This is a figure I'm working on.

looks pretty primitive, but consider there are only 881 vertices in him.

There are no eyes yet or skin, but the basic shapes are there, I have some 'normals' issues on the belly and chest.

By the time I'm finished with him, the number of verticies may double or even triple but consider that other figures frequently have 40,000+ vertices, this little guy will be able to handle huge crowd scenes. Which is sort of what I'm planning for it.I'll probably won't rig fingers or toes, or any special rigs for his ears or other parts. Just arms legs, hip, abs, neck and head.
