			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Hmm, you can use some cotton or blue lego bricks. It's just great to make your own visual effects no some editing program thing. Keep it going, you'll find a way soon. I'm pretty sure. But I recommend some natural and real, no some effect from program... :)

But if you want to make some realistic very realistic water. Use Sqirlz! It's pretty nice. :lol:]]></content>

Also, [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZuLlMlXIu34&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL]here is[/url] a good tutorial on how to use it.]]></content>

No. People animate with clay all the time. Sure, it's sticky, but all you need to do to get it off is take a bigger blob of clay and press it in to the clay you want to remove and there, it's off. This works because it sticks to eachother better than it sticks to other things. If you're worried about residue, you can just rinse it off.

Oh, and be sure to use the non-hardening plasticine-like clay.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[I'm going to need to animate water for a beach scene in a lego film I'm making but don't know what to use for the water. I thought about using lego for it but it probably wouldn't look that good. I have heard about sqirlz but that only works for the bottom of an image not the top like a beach would be. Any ideas.]]></content>
