Thanks Mark, you're completely right about thinking visually.
I now tried to do a rough test with the sphere morphing to a plane
with 4 bones to control the edges of the plane so i can animate
it a little and give it a "waving" feel. Probably will work.
But then again, i have this animation in my head of how
i would like it to be and this is not the way to acchief such a feel.
Will try it your way after some sleep.
