New creator, looking for some quick guidance.

hey guys hows it going. I've been lurking and downloading for awhile but I've only really decided to make it my winter vacation hobby to actually make something. I have a pretty good understand of how everything works, I researched how to vertex hack and how to make recolor textures, and I've done some stuff using maya before, and I'm familiar with working on a computer generator plane using autocad. I've done replacement portraits, and replacement screens, those are all simple to me.

What I'm asking for is, if I were to create a character using say captain falcon as an example, what programs would I need. So far, I have brawlbox, 3d MAX 8, photoshop.

If anybodys curious, I'm making gurren lagann (from the show) using captain falcon's body as the base.

thanks in advance guys.

You pretty much have everything. 3DS Max 8, Brawlbox, and an image editing program.

Depending on what method you want to use to vertex hack with, you're either going to need to get DasDonkey Box 2.2 or use MarioKarts script but if you've researched it then you should already know that lol. I personally find his script easier to use, but it's up to you to decide which is best for you.
