Now that I've come up with a suitable formula I've indeed transitioned 
to cones & spheres, with the odd triangular insert here and there; much 
happier with the feet and sholders now. I also modified the head and 
tweaked the textures a bit. I think I actually like it now.

I think it's time to give the little brave fellow a name now - "Conen" 
will do nicely I guess :-P
