Well as for the classes, I don't know if I'll implement character classes. In the moment it's planned more like Jeanne D'Arc with individual characters that can wield various weapons and skills. But that's not decided up until now.
I think I'll create the 3D models myself, a friend of me is helping me with the models, too. He made a test- / base-character today which turned out quite good. The textures will be made by me aswell. Just started to use a graphics tablet today.
