Thanks everyone for their useful suggestions.

When push comes to shove, i may indeed do the modeling and animating myself.

BUT, I may not.

I will be doing my own video captures of live models because the actions are very much game specific. However, since I intend to record front and side views, they'd be pretty easy to use by others.

I also intend to use, like, black clothes with the white dots on key joints etc for easier accurate animating.

Very good talent here indeed!

Thanks everyone!
