Before I do any animation though, I need to develop characters and decide what their personalities and all that good stuff will be. I think the hardest part in this project will be developing the charcters and deciding what they look like.

Thanks for the nice comments Rhetoric Camel and bullet1968.

That's a good question daverave about whether the models can be loaded into the visor. I'm pretty sure textures and brushes can, but I never thought about trying to add objects, hmm. I'll have to research that but I'm guessing probably not unless you make it a brush stroke.

Here's Grill 2
