Darn the replies here arent as foregiving as the regular posing--I cant seem to edit my response. I left out the "p" in pedicles. Not aware of any physiological structures called 'edicles"
Not sure how many--(haent had a chance to check). The single nephron stuctres (tubules, bowman's capsule, and capillary "glomerulus" arent that poly intensive. the podocyte /edicle layer is pretty dense as I needed to generate an AO vertex map and to do that I needed a lot of vertices. There are many clones of this group throughott he scene, plus the rbcs and other particles travelng through the bloodtream--so in the end its a pretty heavy scene to work through. Thanks for the interest Scott.
There aren't a whole lot of animations I have up online at the moment. There are a few on www.3fx.com, but dont feel they reflect my best work. Hopefully over the next few months I will start getting permission to post completed shots/shows. Thanks again Gunilla!

I started Betatron with a few other animators back in 2003. I am still connected and occasionally work on projects there as needed, but not as actively now that I am full time at 3FX.
