First you had to get red, green, and blue pigments. I usually used grass or local berries found around my yard. During the winter it had to be blood. So for something like a barn, you'd shove some toothpicks and blood into your floppy disc drive and MS Paint would do the rest. A lot of texture artists went to jail after…
@ - Blaizer I'm glad we're having this conversation..Yes it's mainly in the east where traditional animation still flourishes..But let's take Studio ghibli for example..Do you know who distributes their products internationally?? It's Disney....now I know they could easily find another distributor but it's the sign of the…
i went to the premiere here in wellington the other week. and while going in i knew it was gonna be one big circle jerk i came out feeling worse than i thought i would've. understand that i agree with the concepts presented therein 100 fucking percent. and that's the problem. to throw a bullshit stat out there i'm sure…
Matt Damon makes a poor assessment that doesn't really clarify his point that he's concerned about someone who thinks dinosaur bones were buried in the earth to test her faith having the necessary grounding in reality that the nation could rely upon her in a crisis. Likewise it sounded like he wanted to make the point that…
Recently got the dell 2408WFP, fucking amazingly good monitor. Got it on sale for about $120 cheaper as well($480 instead of $600). There is absolutely nothing bad you could say about this monitor, if you have the money and are looking for a quality 24" for art work, go get it! To me this actually seems better than the…
Having watched Scott Robertson, Feng Zhu Gnomon DVDs and being a 3D Modeler for some years myself, I have to say that Feng Zhu puts it very simply done on how to sketch environments. Scott Robertson is a more in depth perspective drawing for detailing that you don't see often on environments and tend to cheat, such as…

PolyHertz & Ged: I took a look at Cinema 4D, and the four different versions you could get sort of confused me. Looked like I was buying windows or something. I'll take a closer look at the features of the lower priced ones though. ralusek: I was actually pretty excited to use blender, especially seeing all the things the…

I have used a Artz II (discontinued) series with only 256 levels of pressure and a Intuos 3 with 1024 pressure. The higher pressure sensivity is not that signifcant if you are only using it for 8 bit RGB painting. It didn't seem to make that much of difference for Zbrush sculpting either. Tilting is a nice feature, but I…
