Every now and again, I get a note or message wondering if I'm going to be finishing one of my 2 animation projects that I have languishing on my harddrive.

The Answer? I have no clue. I guess the answer lies within why I stopped.

With Longing for Home, it comes down to me waiting to squirrel away... $15.00 to by a tree model. Yup - that's it. That's why that has stalled. It went on so long that it got pushed out of the way for other concerns. Now, bigger issues are in the way - mostly in that I need to reinstall and figure out what version of Hash I should be on to complete the short. Oh, and I still need that tree, because my trees suck. Stupid lack of money. >.<

For Stolen Child, it's a little more complicated. The simple one is I sent a model off for rigging (a very complicated folded to in-flight wing-structure that was beyond my abilities) but never got it back. The complicated one... has more to do with my own morals than anything else. The artist for the music/song has made a very complected life decision that ... I don't exactly agree with. It is her life, however, and none of my business. But it does complicate things, and gives me a rather creepy feeling every time I sit down and work on the piece. I'm still on the fence on wither I should continue or not.

Anyway, that's where I currently stand. More thoughts on animation later. Right now I need to give James a ride to the Chiropractor.
