Me and Nate spent hours getting this the way we wanted. It looks awesome, if I may say so myself.

Blendshapes: I've deleted the teeth blendshapes and simply made them follow the relevant joints, which I think works better:

Chest control gives a nice slobby look to the character:

FK:

Adjusting the texture:
Making sure there are no seams:
Building that IK/FK switch:

Control clusters to the spine:

The model adjusted:

Whacked, adding legs, reverse foot control. this model can also tip toe and have a foot bend attribute set by a drive key.
