well id like to see you do it yourself since your sick of waiting for someone else to do it for you.

probally won't be that hard if you sat down and actually tried it.

you do know that to make this i would need a program called maya. that costs about what 1000 dolars (more likely much much more)? and that there are actualy Schools to teach you how to use that program? (in other words even if i bought it or downloaded a pirate version, i would not know what th f*** to do whit it!)

Its true that animation does take time to learn (also the model needs to be rigged) but its something you should at least try and learn urself esp just to know it. As for the cost of maya they do have student trials and i think free downloads or you could just turn to the internet (if u get what i mean)

I know a lot of people who prefer to Maya

I don't even think it's neccesary to do that. ^^

Just go onto autodesk website, and register as a student. As long as you're not using it for commercial / profit use, they won't mind if you 'accidentally' enter a date of birth slightly incorrectly
- The worst case scenario is that it will not work. And if it does, well... It's their problem. Again, the only thing i'd recommend if you do it this way is to keep your models to yourself, and this community. If you start selling your creations some eyebrows may be raised.

On another note, I might give animating a try, but don't expect anything top-notch, and don't expect anything super quick, cos I have my own map to work on.

3 months ago I knew squat about modeling. Now I can create some basic models as well as animate and rig a model.

Where there is a will, there is a way!

There are also a lot of great tutorials and textbooks that can teach you pretty much everything. I have "Introducing Maya 2011" and it's helped a lot.
