				| Me thinks I has a project for you, Marx. Have you ever thought of making the Bon Bon characters into Gundam-like cyber suits, and you could have a personalized planet they guard in the background. It could be kind of similar to Metal Kombat: Falcon's Revenge from SNES, except without actually having to blow the other person up with a shoulder-held plastic bazooka best used while kneeling.... |  |

 actually i had thought of something similiar. but i cant draw mecha(or characters) worth a damn
  3D modeling on the other hand... maybe. i still need alot of practice with blender before i feel comfortable enough to try your idea. the most complicated thing i ever made was the space station in the image below. your idea is'nt bad, its just not an image i can produce right now

				| Good stuff! On the first one, though, it looks like the planets are the same graphic zoomed in to different heights. Flipping one of them should be enough to get rid of that look (unless thats what you were going for. A planet orbiting itself is a cool concept) |  |
