    I know this is an old model started way back, but has someone made this for SOTS?

    Either this or a nice image that was made with this model caused me to investigate it long long time ago. I came to find this model eventually but it was in Truespace format, impossible to convert, and not that good or worth messing with. AND that was like 3 or so years ago. Now after that much time later it's REALLY not worth going after now. It's really simple geomety. Somebody could do a better job too.

    Yeah that's what I was thinking. Bert, there is a new WIP you can start.

    I think Boba is doing alot of "character" work. We don't have any need for this for SOTS either. If anything we need to cut some shots not add any more. THere are some other good people around here too IF somebody actually needed this model... IF. Boba and another guy ? were both doing those AT-PT's long time ago. He was good. There's a handful of people here who are good... IF it's needed.

    just because it is not going to be used in SOTS doesn't mean that Bert, or anyone else for that matter can't make it...

    No one even asked Bert, so what do you act like there is something up your butt when Dr Jones just makes a funny remark?

    I've been wondering, what exactly is SOTS about? It has stuff from the whole series, does it show just parts of Anakin and then Luke, or what? It will be the best whenever it gets finished though.

    Crunchy..? See I don't understand why some people want to pick fights all the time. If you look at the orginal post it asked "if it was made or being made for SOTS". Then Dr.Jones suggested Boba might be up for it. All I did was say we're not doing it for SOTS and we don't really need it. And that Boba is doing alot of character work for himself and us. And that IF it's needed or wanted there are alot of people here that can do it IF Boba doesn't want to. But it's not part of the SOTS project... that's the original question.

    SOTS is complicated. I really hate explaining it b/c it's complex. I think I did a nice write-up on this for our Fan Films page. So read the director's message on the FF page for our project. It's a mesh of alot of famous shots, plus some original stuff. It's not a story with dialogue, etc. We don't have enough character animators for that. So it's more of a animation short with a theme and plot.

    dude, the only thing that took me off guard was that you were staking claim to Bert, okay, so it's not being made for SOTS; I thought it was from the perspective of what I read on the old site...

    People did this at SCIFI-MESHES too when I talked about what should be modelled for the ISD. But the ISD was originally being made for an idea for a SOTS shot. Bobabert isn't officially doing anything for us but he does do things and we use them. But that's besides the point. All I was doing was informing you guys about what he was working on. I have no idea what he's doing, can do, or wants to do. But other people want to get things for themselves and get defensive if somebody says something that can be interpreted as blocking their efforts. So you're really over-reading this whole thing.

    Hum... I was just joking when saying bert could do it. I just said this for fun because he is quiet fast, and he starts new projects when he has several already started.

    I know what you mean Bert, I have this film that I have to have done by June for the FanFilm Awards and I want to do all this other stuff and people ask me to help them and stuff but I really need to work on my film.

    Ah... Lots. He's really good too. That's who I was thinking about.

    BUT anyway... if this is NOT a question but a request Crunchy then put it in the Requests thread. Otherwise this has turned into a silly and pointless debate about nothing and this thread should be deleted.
