Any new tools?

[billdamn22]

Contemplating a return to skinning, and was curious to see if there were any new programs or tools out there? I've actually been prepping a return for a while now. Got tons of sketches for my originals, but the skoping required for some scares me....

I would love to see another skinner jump into action, especially with original characters. Is there any chance that we could get a sneak peek at your sketches?

EDIT: And in regards to your question, I don't think that there are really any new programs that people are using to create characters. I think that the last "New" thing was the introduction of Blender, which is a meshing program.

Hey man, welcome back!  I've always loved your work, and I'd also be excited to see you return.  Original characters are great for a number of reasons, not least of which (at least for my selfish purposes) are the added resources they provide modders!

Thanks, guys. If I get my scanner working again, I will post some sketches. Looks like I may have to find myself someone strong in Nifskope.
Benton, I'm always up to help modders. Maybe I will get around to finishing mine, though probably not. I've always appreciated the support from you. Hit me up if you need something in particular.

Awesome, thanks man, and be ware, those are dangerous words!  Haha, I'll hold you to that.

An original mod, perhaps?  Now you've gotten me curious!

Ditto!

LOL... Don't get your hopes up on the mod. I started it about 3 years ago and didn't get very far. Not to mention my original universe has changed drastically in my mind.
I am currently gathering my resources as well as any of my old work that I can find. Starting to notice there is so much stuff I never released, mainly because they are incomplete or I am just generally unhappy with the end result. With some work, maybe they will see the light of day.

I look forward to seeing these lost treasures!

Hey Bill, with EZScript, anyone can do it.  After all, I have.

Always great to have more people skinning!
