I HAVE NOW ADDED A BLOG TO MY MYSPACE OF THE 1ST CHAPTER OF MY BOOK TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA OF WHAT YOU WILL BE PURCHASING WHEN I COMPLETE THE WHOLE BOOK (I ALSO JUST FINISHED WRITING CHAPTER 2, BUT WILL ONLY BE SHOWN IN FINAL BOOK). YOU CAN FIND MY MYSPACE ADDRESS IN MY SIGNATURE BELOW. CHEERS. Hi to everybody here.... I have been thinking about writing a step by step tutorial ebook with pics included on how to model each of my characters using maya (probably be starting with megatron in the 1st book). The book will also tell you how to transform each character into alt mode and back again. Since Maya PLE is free to download and use... The person will not have to go spending thousands of pounds to do the project. I plan on writing it as a step by step process where the person doing the work will only need to know the simple basics of maya which he can learn quite quickly using the help section of Maya. Once the book is complete, i plan on then putting it up for sale on ebay or other places. Before starting it however, i would like to know if anybody here would even be interested in purchasing it, because ofcourse if it wont selll, there is obviously no point in starting it really. Thank you for your time of reading this. I look forward to your replys. Cheers. |

I should have the same gig next year too (so that's Botcon 08 sorted  ). I'm currently working on a couple of other commissions, and Redemption Episode Two. It's all go, isn't it  |
