CONTRIBUTORS
The desert scene on Layer 11 is from Potado, grabbed off of Blendswap.org. Blender 2.5′s metarig system was used for some instances, such as the spine and initial leg setup. Special thanks to Nathan Vegdahl, Campbell Barton and the Durian team for making that!
VOCABULARY
Cataphract–an armored Greek mount
Howdah–a half saddle, half gazebo apparatus that goes on elephants and similarly massive mounts.
Enjoy!
