Thanks ngeorge! I'm waiting very patiently (fingers drumming the table top loudly). I think you will have plenty of interest in this, so please post ASAP ;-) You also may want to share the process of how you finally created and boned this peice to encourage those of us who want to do such things, but are a little squeemish about tackling something like this. Thanks again! James PS: I'm great at textures if you need any help.
