Hey all,

Ok, I'm up to the stage where I'm about to rig the face for expressions and something hit me.

I have two character for my short animation and I was wondering, before I rig their faces (with default-named helpers) should I first bring both character into the same scene?

I don't want to end up merging later and having to rename all the helpers and shapes.

Oh dang, I need to rename the bones as well >_>

But yeah, should I merge them first before doing facial rigging?

Also, since when you merge a scene into another, their materials don't actually appear in the Material Editor, is it best if once I merge the files, I bring in their materials into the new Material Editor? In case I need to fix some stuff?

Thanks
