the concept art for the beast is approved, i don't really care who models it but i would say katie has dibs because she had it first, however if she wants to defer to you that is fine - if you have any questions post them for the group or you can email me directly and i can answer! as far as contentions go, i think basically people are frustrated by a lack of progress, we had a major problem as far as managing the project goes that hopefully is in the process of being rectified so really don't worry about it! I really like everyone on the team and i think we can do great thing and i feel responsible for slowness but have taken steps to fix the issue... hopefully we'll have smooth sailing now. thanks, eric On Sun, Nov 15, 2009 at 3:42 PM, gabriel taylor <aidyn66@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > I haven't seen any of the concept work for the beast, and I was under the > impression Katie was going to be working on it.
