Playing with Blender again

It has only been 5 years since I last had a play and I am reminded myself of the software by completing some tutorials. 🙂

In the picture above I used some of the pictures I created in Poster to put into the frames. I learned lots about Blender while doing this scene. Many of the things I had forgotten ever learning and, while it is not perfect, it was great fun.

I love this cartoony style! Learned even more while creating it.

Congratulations Modo!

Great news for Modo and Blender!

Modo has won the best Art Tool category in Game Developer Magazine. It was up against 3D Max 2013, ZBrush, Maya and Photoshop CS6!

Blender has won the Free category!

Still working on the blog

I am particularly bad at updating the look of my own sites and this blog is still very much a work in progress. However, I love the new header. Aren’t big cats beautiful?

I’ve been doing lots of learning about 3D but still have lots to learn. I haven’t had much chance to render lately but I hope to get back to my daily image soon. Maybe I should make it a weekly image as that would be more manageable at the moment.

Camcorder

The camcorder arrived this morning and I have spent most of the day reading the instructions, charging the battery and playing around with it. We will have to go out more now so we can get some good footage!

Yippee!!!!

Yippeeeeeeee!!!! I was one of the winners of the Daz Treasure Hunt!!! 😯 I cannot believe that I was actually one of the first 25 people to send in my answers or that I could win after being stuck on one of the earlier questions for 2 days!!!! I’m so pleased they released the clues in groups. It gave me time to solve the answer to that very difficult clue!! It’s unbelievable!!! 😛 I’m not sure what I’m going to spend my prize on but I am going to have lots of fun thinking about it!! 😛
