Well I am artistic, and ocassionally obsessive-compulsive. Maybe that's a good combo in this case. then again, I only just discovered that I can combine shapes in Firewords and push them about like they were putty - wheeeeee! When i do new web comix, I've been using Firreworks to draw the speech/though balloons and text.

I downloaded a few sample Blender models the other day. Looked very impressive, but I bet there was heaps of hours behind each in learning.
