So I changed my Soundcloud name to DoctorNode and I broke all my links! https://soundcloud.com/doctornode I'm suffering from burnout right now so no new music for the foreseeable future, hopefully that will get fixed in a few months.
I'm playing with hairy systems. I doubt I'll use fur. Aesthetically I foresee it looking odd. I may cheat the eyes with the texture. I'm not sure if Maya supports targa sequence for textures if I wanted the eyes to be "animated". Hmmm
Hi Dasha, I hope you had a good weekend. Yes there is nothing wrong about experimenting. In fact, taking older projects and testing out new ways to light, render and animate them is great research and dev. That's usually what I do.

We welcome any…
Thank you so much everyone. @ Spoon: its just a easier and efficient way to get the work done for the armour pieces. I Foresee a lot of work with this project so testing out a pipeline thats faster :) oh! here is a smaller update btw
Hey Kevin! Yeah I've thought of dropping the whole handle thing as well. My real name is Forrest Crump though, so it tends to have more staying power than anything I could think of. Anywho, nice work on UT3 man.
