BioMecha Redraw

Was looking through my gallery tonight to see if anything desperately needed scrapping. Half of it does
Looking at my old crap I got to wondering how much better and faster I could turn out the same concept. Heres the first of hopefully a few of these studies, an old bio mech [link]

Didn't get it done much faster, 1.5hr compared to 2hr original. The up-res on detail was my main focus, being aware of finer working at the joints, and using better forms.
Not so happy with my fattening it up, but I'll deal.
