@theluthier Haha – thanks! The encouragement from you and the others posting here really means a lot!
I have DREAMED of seeing an assembly animation for this thing. I have a definite look and style visualized inside my head for it, even.
But while I’m confident I can create this model and get some fantastic stills out of it, I would love the challenge of building an animation even, I have to admit that RENDERING such an animation is probably out of the practical reach of my hardware.
Might be a good opportunity to dust off and use some of those Sheepit credits I’ve built up. But would they even be enough? I really am not sure.
It’s a down-the-road thing, at any rate.
