Thanks Steve.  I have an idea for a cartoon band and I am taking one member at a time.  I need to tweak the eyes, get some hair and mouth :-)

 Hi there Blick Fang.
 Been away for a while, but gr8 to be back.
 Hope your band is still coming along?
 Has inspired me to revisit the band i've been playing with.
 Have you started a drummer yet? (will you have one?)
 I found getting the guitarist right is a tricky one, but do-able.
 The drummer is a fun challenge. Once you've built his/her drumkit, anim8ing the drummer is a hoot. Use sequences where-ever possible. The most important sequence here, ('pose' actually), is the drummer sitting with arms in neutral 'ready' position. Key all bones for that one. Handy to bring drummer back to a 'tidy' pose, with arms back to a 'ready' position  ;)

 Edit: just realised you said you're doing one member at a time. oops. sorry bout talking 'drummer' early then. ;)
 Mind you, in saying that, if the gat man starts to drive you crazy, building a drumkit etc... can be a good break for a while, and guitar man will still be there to work on when you need a rest from the other band members. ;)

Hi Johnar

Glad your back!  I put the band on the back burner to work on the real band.....sort of.  I need to focus more.  I don't mind telling you how much focus you need to make something nice with Anim8or, or any software for that matter.  I wish focus were a tangible commodity as I would like to stock up on it.  Things that are cluttering my mind:

Trying to learn Anim8or
Trying to learn Blender
Trying to Learn Ada programming language
Trying to learn Java Script
Trying to revisit Flash MX
Trying to Learn ToonBoom Studio
Trying to revisit Muvizu
Trying to write new songs on guitar
Trying to write new songs on bass guitar.


I have to say that was a tad therapeutic mentioning those things. :-)

 Lol.  Maybe i should make a list of things that are 'cluttering' my mind as well.
 I can understand the 'therapeutic' benefits of such an exercise.
Thanks for that, good idea.  ;D
