That would be awsome if you could do a scethch of the library! I started the scene with Morrolan. I looks like shit right now. i have no idea how to do the stairs. I have them where M is standing on them, but if I get them to spiral, they'll cut off his head. I suppose it would be alright if the tip were off, but the stairs would look like crap. My mom and I practiced on scrap paper to draw a spiral stair case. I have his stance pretty good. The rest of it is comming along fine. I don't have any detail work yet, just basic out lines. I can't wait for it to be finished! -- -C "Every composer knows the anguish and despair occasioned by forgetting ideas which one has not time to write down." -- (Louis) Hector Berlioz (1803-69), French composer
