In a way yes. The scene is running as a simulation with an extremely 
significant amount of ICE driving it. Its working reliably and I don't want to 
mess with it. The new objects and their appearance are really quite simple but 
integrating them in the proper place now would only be best of I used ICE to 
automate them as part of the existing workflow, which would be preferable. The 
point is if I were to use ICE for this it would not be applied specific to the 
element being designed, but that ICE would be used to actually generate or 
managed the elements as part of other structure that is already governed by ICE 
and integrated to that. The time involved to integrate in the proper place now, 
and test properly, would be quite significant. The irony to ICE I suppose, 
building it takes some time up front, but it can save hours or days downstream. 

Further, I had not done this in a while, figured it was really simple, and it 
is (presuming you remember how to do it).
