Beast E Gargoyle, responding to all of this guy's threads with that is pretty inconsiderate of him and us other forum members. If you really need to contact him, e-mail or IM is great. If this is the only way you have to contact him, at least show some consideration and actually say something useful about his topic.

Unfortunately I can't really follow my own advice, I don't know much about organic modelling. It looks very nice to me, though! Just the lower arm is a bit off, looks way too thin.

@Beast: ...

@Cong: The wireframe looks good. However, clothing is mostly done with bump mapping in order to reduce poly count. Unless you are going to have very pronounced extrusions of clothing (more than a wrinkled shirt), I'd stick to bump mapping. It's hard to tell with your model what exactly your going for. If you can give me a picture (even a mental picture) of what you had in mind for your finished product, I might be able to tell you whether adding the detail into the model, or adding the detail with bump mapping would be better.

You asked if that's a good edge flow or not, and quite frankly, that's not good, what you want is for your model to follow the muscle flow of the human body and still maintain a good poly count. And at the moment your model does neither.
What I would suggest is for you to look at some already existing edge flows of characters online (Like here) and also look at some general anatomy studies to get you familiar with how the muscles flow.
And obviously practice. Learning how to model organic things can be quite the fiddle at first.
