- I have a friend that was doing the same thing in SoftImage. If I remember
- correctly, he modeld a Raptor in SI. Then rendered a side view of the beast
- and in the SI paint program he imported the rendered picture in to it. Then
- he painted the thing. Everything from the Eyeball down the scales. I *think* he
- used YZ mapping but I could be wrong. He built his IK chain and animated the
- thing.
-
- I think for me, the part most interesting was the work done in Eddie. The whole
- animation was a Raptor eating a Carcus and when the raptor ripped off a piece
- of meat you could see blood dripping from his mouth and droplettes of blood
- spring from the dead animal as it teared it off. That part was all in Eddie.
