"To define Tao is to defile it" - Lao Tzu

Your usual DISTRACTION tactic.

Nevertheless...here's the update.

My learning is not sequential. I am not looking at LW for modelling, though it's quite powerful. I find the Kinect Motion capture in LW pretty interesting and it gives good result.

The Rendering Nodes are really powerful. I am trying similar NPR results in my usual pipeline without LW and they are shaping up fine.

lightwave was actually my first choice when i first considered a next level renderer.... it has a good community and they have a lot of great tutorials.....I kept back though firstly because of the price , and 2ndly because it was time consuming.... it's a hot software though....

whats the look you are trying to get anyways ?

"To define Tao is to defile it" - Lao Tzu

I looked at LightWave, but decided to pass on it for now. It's not an easy program to master.

It also had weird quirks when I ran it, such as clearing a scene didn't clear the memory...

For next few years I will be focusing on the Toon Shaders and creating those quirky look of Seventies with the latest technology.

BTW, was the clip you have given the link made in Lightwave ?

naw, it was just a cliip of what I saw as a clean cut animation - turns out it was made in after effects. Another render engine that I like a lot which was pretty fast was Messiah, very very good with toon shading. But their texture system was not fun at all. Forget about using substance with it, they strip your character on import.....but if, say for example, you were going to build your set once ....and make all movies from there ....it might be worth checking out. - for me it's not practical because I'm always changing and experimenting.

as much as I want to make graphics for my music, I also enjoy the experimenting, my own personal pleasure in between tuts lol

here's a video made in an older version of messiah -

I don't have much luck with mobile phones...
Last phone I bought was Nokia N8. Not long after I bought it, the Symbian operating system became obsolete.

Last week I just bought a new phone, so I could have an Android phone. I bought a Sony.....
