Having haptic feedback on your digital sculpts in zbrush would be a great addition to have. If a company made an affordable 3d haptic stylus, I feel that it could potentially speed up the process or just make it easier. It just seems more intuitive than a tablet for sculpting.
I've been busy with other things as well as the holidays but this month is grind fest 2014. With the first digital update I did a very sketchy lay in for the composition. There is still a lot to fix and tomorrow I'm going to try to finish the clean line work to get ready and paint on.
The personality I want to convey, is one similar to M-O from Wall-E. "Must... clean..." The digital display where the eyes are located, show so much emotion from just two lines and I want to emulate this level of emotion in my roomba's personality.
I've never heard of most of those companies. A lot of them are small regional things. There is 2 or 3 real options in canada. Rogers, Bell, and Shaw. Your list leaves out all the satellite and digital services. It doesn't have Dish Network, or Direct TV, etc...
I don't have a reference or target. The aim of this task to learn face anatomy as well as digital sculpting. It is a part of my diploma course. Only one reference I use is a book for face anatomy, so I just follow a general idea about face structure.
I ceased my subscription this year as Autodesk doesn't have any plans to develop Mudbox any further then it's current state which I say 2016/2017 will suffice in most, digital sculpting requirements for everything else there is always zBrush or 3D coat if you prefer.

I'm not sure about that last point, hiking *up the price the more you buy is pretty much the opposite to how it works in the real world, I dont think the fact it is digital for games would change that. Itd be a pretty big disincentive to go nuts buying stuff
