Re: Modo 601
No need to go on the offensive. Just my opinions are present. As for the apple thing, it was an initial impression nothing more.

Re: Jobs : WTF, seriously.
Jesus guys, I step away from the PC a couple days to relax and come back to a bunch of people telling me i ignore help and cherry pick job offers?.... The more this thread goes on the more I feel like everything I say or do is being twisted into bad interpretations and making me look unfairly bad, so be careful about that… -
Re: What is the most important skills for a character modeling?

Re: Tutorial - Gradient Mapping & UDK
You would just question me on just enough to get me to write it wouldn't you? :P Thanks for the push. It took far longer than I'd thought all because it took me a while to remember/figure out the general form for making these sub gradations, but the mental math felt good. I finally had to break out the paper and work out… -

Re: A contractor is telling me these renderings will take weeks. Should they?
