I made a breakthrough today in the art department. I haven't worked on getting this into the game yet, but it's becoming more and more possible. Textures work even. So, here is a short movie (14 seconds) showing a character model that may or may not find itself in the client soon. Word of warning though, while this quality of character will be in the final version of BOL, this particular model will not. The reason for this is that it's from another game and is copyrighted. But models like this one will be much nicer looking placeholders until I'm able to acquire actual models for BOL.
