It's going well ...Ive got the model !
I havnt actually had a chance to load the model up properly yet as i don't have a graphics card....That is currently winding its way through the postal system so I hope it will be ariving within the next few weeks.
Ive had some very possitive replies from some of the artists, some are currently busy with their own real world obligations but most are still interested in helping if they have the chance. Only time will tell in that department.
So yeah the plan is going !
