well i'm inspired to give it a crack again thanks to Minstrel and Sir-Avalon work. So i'm gonna try to model and hopefully texture and animate this polikarpov prob wont be anything that special. Had hardly anytime 2day to fill in the real basics, have a calculus test 2morrow so should have time after that :attn:
