From meshes to tushes. How to make things in 3D software.

Photos. Galleries.

19-Jun-09

It’s been quite awhile, so I updated the gallery to the latest version of ZenPhoto. It’s supposed to work well with WordPress via some plugins. At the moment, it’s only a few photos, but I’ve got a ton more photos to process and add. Plus, there will also be some 3d stuff, graphic design, and [...]

Behind the curve…as usual

04-Apr-09

Last year, mainstream media was all abuzz about Second Life (kinda like how they’re all on the Twitter bandwagon now). I looked at it a bit, but wasn’t overly impressed and didn’t join. The hype made it sound like the Metaverse in Neal Stephenson’s “Snow Crash,” however, Second Life’s graphics didn’t match the Metaverse as [...]

I is a prfessinal

22-Sep-08

A few years ago, I posted some 3D models of mine to TurboSquid. While they take a cut, they pay every so often. However, my stuff has sold so infrequently I never got paid, because it was the amount was too small to make it worthwhile cutting a check. On Friday, I got my first [...]

Time keeps on slipping

28-Feb-08

I need to study more. Today we had an oral exam in French, while we had a regular exam last week. While we were on break in class this week the teacher handed out our graded exams from last week, and I am a bit disappointed in myself. I got a 79. Since I missed [...]

Apple tart

26-Feb-08

I’ve had the MacBook Pro for over a month now and since I have more experience with it, it’s probably ime for a progress report or something. As an aside, I keep wanting to call it a Powerbook because it reminds me of the Apple G4-era Powerbooks from a few years ago.
Typing still sucks. I’m [...]

This better be good

22-Aug-06

I’ve been on one of my Blender kicks lately. Part of it is because I am teaching myself Yafray and part of it is so I can build up my online portfolio/store. Since a couple of the projects I’m working on require glass blocks, I figured I would model them in Blender. I should have [...]

Faster and more intense

19-May-05

Star Wars III: Revenge of the Sith came out today, and while I wasn’t one of the die hard souls to see it at 12:01 am, I got done with work early and saw it.
If you have problems with spoilers, profanity, randomness, or spelling errors, then I suggest you avert your eyes. Otherwise, feel [...]

Blender 2.35 is out

17-Nov-04

The latest Blender is out and can be downloaded here.
I’ve been back on a Blender kick and have started doing some more modelling. Currently, I am making a loft apartment with all of the details. Here is a good shot of where I am at the moment. That image took over four hours to [...]

Back into Slackware again

02-Aug-04

First off, it’s pretty hot out there. Of course it doesn’t help that I was wearing a dark grey long sleeve shirt outside, but I’m expected to dress nice for work.
I got Slackware 10.0 up and running on my computer, and I got the network going, so I must be doing okay. I got it [...]

Shoulda known better

01-Aug-04

I should have known better. I was fooling around in Blender 2.33 for a little bit while slackupdate was installing the files. Not often, but occassionally, Blender 2.33 will freeze up while doing a render on my machine. I thought it was only on complex models, but I guess it happens on simple models too, [...]
