A counterbalance would also help the main joint.
Notice how the motors (top) are an effort to balance the arm, the Hero1 arm could only lift (barely) 0.5kg

You need to reduce dead weight by all means.

you have to spend much more time designing your arm than constructing it, otherwise, believe me, you end up building a useless metallic piece of crap! This is a number 1 rule that we learn in engineering schools.

sorry for being so direct, but honestly, you have to!

Well you guys were pretty much right... Theres no way the motors will be able to lift up the weight by themselves... Now em adding some gears to each joint and changing the design a bit... I'll post the updated pics once I am done =)
