Hello

Bamboo?.........Did someone mention Bamboo? What would you like to see made out of bamboo? I will hook you up? I am a blender user as well and have had my share of trials, but am a confident builder now, so any tips , just ask and if there is a model giving you a hard time, send upload it and one of us is sure to have an answer or fix:) DMP is a great builder, and his models inspired me to do a full custom som set......And if you need texture advice, there is none better than Darchangel, I usually give him my models to play with and he makes them look Pretty.REAL PRETTY.....So your amongst friends here, Hope to help you out very soon , and ......Happy Modeling

PS I know you dig Blender and all, I myself model everything in it, I tried other high end software, blender just works better, and it's free, BUT you really need to get the basics of Metasequoia, For meta has simplified texturing options that are easier to use than Blender, AND even once you have Python 2.6 installed, the X format export option is not as effecient as Metasequioa, Therefor models exported to x with blender sometimes fail and don't retain textures.... Models exported to X with Metasequioa, are 9 times out of 10 perfect... So like I did get atleast a little familair with the basics of Metasequoia, and for detailed Metasequoia Advice there is NONE BETTER than Darchangel....
