GreG / Sam, Got a question for the two of you if you've got the time and answer… I'm trying to bone a shark. The question is, I'm not sure how to do it… I've tried the exercise in the manual with the hand, but that really wasn't discriptive enough for me to understand and learn the entire concept. (Sorry Impulse, I'm too Analytical for brief explanations <g>) I've gotten to the point where I lay down various axes using the Z ax to point the direction of the bone, however I'm not sure how to group them and then assign faces to each axis. I think the problem is coming in that I want several seperate bones so I can move the head, midsection, tail and dorsal fins seperatly. I went through D2I but, didn't really find anything that clicked in my head. Any help you could give me, I would appreciate.! Thanks and Take it Easy, Doug
