So, I've been looking into other feds, and I came across a really cool one that has one of the best-looking roster pages I've ever seen. The reason for that is pretty simple: The guy in charge used a program to make original 3D character models for his roster. Here are some samples.
It got me thinking: Why can't we do this? While at first glance, making 3D person models seems like an impossible task, but I did some digging and found that these are possible using a free program called Daz3D.

The best way to describe this thing would be a CAW creator with insane detail. You get basic models and then dress them up, make face and body adjustments, and eventually you render them and get that up there. I know we have plenty of people who are into graphics and CAW-making and the like, and plenty of people with talent and passion, so why can't we do something like this?
Well, here's the kicker: Parts cost money. Some parts are...pretty damn expensive, to be honest. I have a job, but my income is hardly disposable, and I'm sure it's the same for many of you.
That said, is there anyone else willing to even give this thing a shot? I think that it'd be one hell of a way to push WZCW's presentation to the next level and create a more unique roster. Imagine how cool match graphics would look with these things. Instead of Rey Mysterio vs. Husky Harris, we could actually visualize Grand Mystique vs. Mikey Stormrage with custom body types, faces, and attires. How cool would that be?
Is there any interest in this? Even just some discussion about the possibility of this would be cool. Is this something that I or anyone else could attempt to take a crack at? What do you all think?
