AM - Biker Dan

Hey Dan
First of all I just want to say that your work is really impressive and show a great deal of potential.
The biker guy is looking great and shows a good understanding of anatomy and weight which is often missed by even senior modelers.
Body: I would not worry too much about detailing folds of skin as this will not be visible. If you would like to add them in make sure to mention that you did this only to show off your modeling skills and not because you needed it in shot.
Clothes: The best thing to do with clothes is to build them the same as in the real world. Build them laid out flat like a seamstress would before sewing them together. Then you know you have seams in the right way, your UVs will be perfect, you can tile any texture/pattern on them and if you did any cloth sims they would look fantastic.
Even without cloth sims you will easily be able to shrik wrap your pre-cut clothes to fit your biker and I'm sure after a bit of tweaking you get what you are after.
cheers
Andrew
