Stephen,
<<I'm still unclear though how you lofted the head with the mouth insides
pulled out. Does this mean he looked like he was throwing-up his insides before
you pushed his mouth back in? Also, did you use the deform/fit function to
create the initial head or was it lofted from a stack of cross-sectional
objects?>>
That's right, You can create a guy throwing up his guts and push them back in,
but now that I think about it, I created the skin kid a little differently. I
Lofted a surface of revolution so I had a vase shape on it's side. I then
pushed and pulled the verticies around till I had a head, with the mouth of the
vase being the kid's mouth. I hope Gary will upload the mesh so you can play
with it. Feel free to use it if you like as a starting point for your work. I
am impressed that you are making a cartoon short. It's something I would love
to do. If I only had the time…. <g>
Regards.
