Practical Production Techniques Vol. One now available!
Hi Everyone, here is my latest video for you guys to enjoy!
Bevel++ released for 64Bit LightWave3D 9.6
Special thanks to Mike Green for keeping an eye out on this one. Several months ago, I actually emailed the developer and asked if he was going to be able to update Bevel++ to LightWave 64bit editions. Sadly he said that it wasn’t possible, due to the code base being done using some special intel code something or other, which only worked in 32bit. HOWEVER! It seems now its gone through a major update and now it is available in 64bit with some additional enhancements. Very awesome and super inexpensiveRead More

I happened to work on that show with 2 other great and talented Lightwave folks out of Europe. So props are required for Oliver Vogel and Robbie Muller (especially robbie who built the entire station42 model and most of the sequences before I even got there… the man is insane!) for hanging tough and making theRead More
