Hey all,
We've started up a development blog over here. We are going to try to keep it updated as frequently as possible. Right now we're going to be doing a set of three features on what goes into producing improved destruction models for Star Villains and Space Heroes. The first one - Alex Tears Apart a Starship - is up now, in which Alex talks about how he goes about cutting up and destroying his models.
Once you've read it - and it is awesome, I assure you - stay tuned as I'll be adding my two cents sometime on the weekend.
