So, after taking a good long look at what I need to do (and its a LOT) I have decided that in order to get the perspective right for the small town that i am going to hand draw, I need to do a ROUGH mockup of it in a 3D program. Hence the start of what will be hand drawn soon, hopefully. If I can't get it hand drawn, then I will probably just use some stills from the 3D rendered outputs from Maya and use those to mess with when I program the game (as that is going to be my biggest hurdle). Here is a screenshot of the theater and crime scene roughed out.

I won't go into more detail anymore on these because I am already behind the 8 ball so to speak. I need to really hammer them out quickly. I plan on taking still renders of the this little 3D town (like Myst) and then hand drawing the details over top after outputing the images to a tangible format, scan them back in, and put them into director for flipping through. Then comes the hard part, the server side programming and game play!
