The way I see it, the concept art is just a template to go off of, and if it
would work better in 3D to change things, then the 3D artist shouldn't feel
limited by what's in the 2D concept.
Basically what I'm saying is that I'm not going to be butthurt if things are
changed between my design and the final product- that would sort of defeat
the whole purpose of working as a team.

If all goes well, tonight I'll have my scanner/tablet hooked up and I can
start scanning the other sketches and slopping colors on.
