New Project

# Hey! Right now I'm following along with 3dbuzz modular rigging system tut and I'm learning tons of great stuff!  The best thing with the tutorial is that I'll always have access to it, so I can go back and watch it again when ever I feel I need to remind myself of something. ( or when the time comes for me to build my very own rigging system) But the tutorials content is over 50hours,over 200 individual videos!
I'we been following a long for three days now and I'm at video 30, so I was thinking if I could split my days up in two, like before lunch I continue learning python and work on the modular rigging system and after lunch I work on my own project. (Just for the purpose of not getting bored by it being to monotone, not with standing that programming for almost 8 hour a day makes my head go nuts and when I go to bed I thinking of different solutions to solve problems or about some error I didn't fix and so forth..)

So what should my new project be about?
I want to dig even deeper in to rigging and building tools, maybe in the end have something that I can practice my animations skills with.

So my plan is to create a character from scratch (concept and all)
Give the character some awesome topology that will work great for rigging and animation.

[To Do list]
* Create sweetlooking imageplanes and some concept of the face
(in the end I'll also need an expression sheet)
* I'll read through the book 'stop staring'
* I'll go through some zbrush or mudbox tutorials at DT:
(I have some experience already, but I want everything to be as good as possible)
*I'll watch some tutorials about facerigging, curvebased/jointbased

When I'm done with my character I'll use him as a labrat and try out different rigging solutions.
I'll use a python script I found on the web to test the speed of the different rigging solutions.
I'm also thinking of scripting some tools to save poses and things like that. :)

This will be a big project that never have to end! So lets go!  :)

Trying to keep it as clean as I can. :)

Not sure if im to happy with the result
