Total Recall again

It looks like the 1990 sci-fi movie will be "recalled" in 2012. Colin Farell is about to replace Arnie and go to Mars in a virtual holiday. Same story, less muscles, more CG effects.... :)

custom multi-attribute paint tool

I have recently made this tool which automaticly finds multi-array attributes on objects (paintable only) and adds a custom part under Maya paint attribute UI. I have a multi-target custom blendShape which I can paint with this tool now. It`s scripted with python apart from user defined context commands which had to be MEL (wrappers to python).
