Ok I need to create a 3d model of a biped character based on a toy. The toy I have is a homer simpson. I am not sure how to model him. Can anybody tell me how I could model him. A quick and simple way would be the best. Oh and his arms have to be out so he is in a T pose.

I have attached the pictures of the toy so you can see what he looks like.

Cheers,
James

not so hard if i look at it for the head you could use a cyllinder and a sphere. the body is also a sphere.

Ok so I would create a polygon sphere for his body but then how would I get it to be exactly the same as his body?

you can import that in maya as ref and then model it from there?

That is what I am doing. So far I have created his feet, legs, body and arms. His arm need to be in a out so he is in a T pose and I created the arms comming out but his arms, hands and fingers dont look good at all. I dont know how to create his head so how would I do this and how would I create his mouth? I have tried but I cant figure it out.
