After a year of wrestling with the tech behind this project, I finally got the video together.

OH DEAR GOD youtube compresses it to absolute fuzzy garbage. oh well.

Thanks for the compliments guys, or, at least those of you who aren't arguing about whether his is Hella or Mars Volta.
This video is a still a sore spot with me. I had much more complex ideas, and a narrative, and even characters. This is an old render I found of one of the characters that I had built in 3d. He's in T-pose, which is a pose you use to bind characters to 'skeletons' for animation.
