I did this with a free version of a neat 3-d program called <a target="_blank" href="http://www.e-onsoftware.com/">Vue d'Espirit</a>. And, I did it all myself! I've really always wanted to do this kind of thing, but, well, personal reasons kept me from getting into it. If I showed too much interest, it was frowned upon by someone I cared about, who saw it as a kind of competition. Which is sad, really, because we could have had fun doing this together. Or, maybe not. In any case, it's something that has interested me and, when I saw this free version in a magazine, I decided to play around with it. Not bad, considering it took me about an hour and I used nothing but free software.
