Well, xCliff, for a start you will need some kind of 3D modelling program - and there are a few out there from free (eg: Blender) to expensive (eg: 3DMax). And of course at least a rudimentary knowledge of how the program works.

If you are working with Blender (the software I use) - there are at least two options:

1. You have to build the character, rig and animate it yourself -

2. You are allowed to use an already created character -

Hope that helps.

If you use other modelling software - then ignore all of the above

cheers, gryff :slight_smile:
