Angus from Pixar's BRAVE!

I am absolutely enamored with Pixar's upcoming movie BRAVE, so I decided to model Angus, Merida's Clydesdale and best friend. Keep in mind, I only had a few concept images to go on when I modeled this, so his head and feet are noticeably the most out-of-proportion with the real Angus.
Also, he's a little too blue, but we'll forgive him that :)

Half-painted:

*GASP* during weight painting- there are still some weird influences here on his neck...

I've been working on this guy on-and-off since July or August, and it's been a huge relief to have the rigging all done, phew. 

Now I've got to find a way to optimize his texture, so I can animate him... right now Maya dies every time I try to move a joint....
