Yeah, I've got to the point where I can *usually* draw CAD characters 
such that you can recognise who it's supposed to be. What expression 
they end up having still seems to be rather random - I haven't worked 
out how to really control this part yet.

Arms and legs are also deceptively hard. They're not just cylinders; 
their circumferance changes along their length in a really quite subtle 
way. (If you ignore it, it looks wrong. If you try to draw it, it looks 
vastly exaggerated. And wrong.)

I think it would be extremely interesting to find out how Tim draws 
these guys. I mean, sure, partly it's practice. But by now he must 
surely have a carefully honed technique for drawing each guy and gal...?
