Well, I’m back with another tutorial – that’s the good news! The bad news is that this time it’s a paid tutorial – I’ve kept it incredibly cheap (Anything over $5) as I’m just looking to break even with these tutorials, this will allow me to keep putting content out there.

Taking Suggestions For Cheetah Tutorials…
I’ve mentioned a few times in the past that I’m planning on producing some paid Cheetah3D tutorials and I’m starting to think that time is drawing closer.

The price difference between the two apps is at the least $700 (for the basic version… Continue reading Cheetah3D vs Cinema4D
UV Mapping in Cheetah3D
UV mapping has always baffled me in Cheetah3D. No matter what I do it always seems to be a battle where I eventually get what I want but it’s largely down to just plain old trial and error. When I get some time I’m really going to go to town and see if I can… Continue reading UV Mapping in Cheetah3D
Silo3d Training With Glen Southern
A few weeks back I contacted Glen with a view to potentially having some one on one Silo training – well today I did just that. I went to Glen’s home studio in Cheshire and spent the day getting to grips with Silo and looking at some of the issues I have when character modelling.… Continue reading Silo3d Training With Glen Southern
