I haven't finished my last one but here it goes...
This is a small tribute for a friend

This is what I've done so far:

Some NURBS balloons with sss fast simple shader.
C&C please

And two questions:
*What's the best way to create strings? Anyone ever tried this?
*Can I use dynamics to make them arrange themselves naturally? Will it be easier then doing it manually? Thing is I want to create a dozen balloons more or less, and I need this one by a deadline (21st).
Thanks in advance,
Benny

PS
I'm having strange problems with Maya's render window not saving images (It creates blank image files)... I'll experiment with it tomorrow. now it's printscreen and paste into paint...
