Michael, << I think it`s much easier to use three boxes (top, middle, bottom) and use a SKIN to let it look like one box.>> I'd be interested to see how you are doing this. How large are your 3 boxes in relation to the overall box? Are you able to keep the edges from developing angles where the boxes end and the skin begins? I had imagined that you were doing it with a series of very thin boxes. Not to raise anyone's competitive hackles, but Animation Master might also be an alternative. I've tried to curtail my brand loyalty once I overcame my Mac bias when I discovered how much better/cheaper 3ds was compared to ElectricImage. Now I'm much more interested in finding the best tool for each specific job, and AM has some formidable character animation features. But overall I like 3ds better. After all, I did MY first major character animation on it. Scott
