Bot Avatars Compared
Lead: Real renders, not mockups. These are screenshots of the 3dfacility dev build with the demo crew, in both views, under each avatar option. Sprites look most like the avatars today. Hybrid gives real 3D where we have it. Full 3D shows what auto-made models look like next to built characters.
