hey guys and gals,

Hopefully this will become a very long thread. MoonRender_1 and myself are starting a very huge project, "House of Fates" today and we wanted to make a thread to keep track. We will be posting up WIP pics as well as many, many questions along the way, I hope you guys can help us later.

Peace,
