All the shape work on Justin <http://www.justinandtheknightsofvalour.com>was done in mixer (lots of shapes), we hadn't enough time to refine ICE workflows for nontechnical artist and not everyone on the team had a solid softimage background (this was 3 - 4 years ago). Mixer tends to be a bit messy, but with some tools to cleanup and serialize some of the shape stuff we didn't have too many problems.
