Finished the body, now I’m starting to add details (headband, gloves). I’ve never actually ‘clothed’ anything before, so this should be interesting.
Heres what I have so far.
Test animation is here.

quality is crazy low to conserve server space
Hehe. With the proportions now it looks like a Ninja Turtle head almost! Funny. Good start though.
fixed him up a bit and added some preliminary toonshade tests
He’s a great toon-ninja…had I realized that was your goal I’d have commented earlier. I think its a good toon style…but don’t get carried away with details because he IS a toon.
thanks for the comments. yea you’re right, i shouldnt do much more with clothing detail, it would look funny toon shaded. and now that i look at him, he’s one shell away from looking like a ninja turtle. maybe thattl be my next project.
Yay for armatures.
Cool man. looks like you used rows of null vertices to keep the joint deformations down? Nice action poses.
Really cool ninja, easy to make a little animation. Btw, is the character toonshaded. 
I believe this render is missing a vital piece. The guitar.
