Scott Shepherd (Technical Art Lead for Bungie's 3D Department) presented this year at GDC. The talk, Building Customizable Characters for Bungie's Destiny, is now available on the GDC Vault. In this hour-long presentation, Scott presents a ton of information about the vision and implementation of the character appearance and customization that we will experience in Destiny. The talk itself is about 40 minutes long, with another 20 minutes of Q&A afterward. Very interesting! (Thanks to Xenos for the heads-up!)
