Save the Models!

Written on February 4th, 2010

Lately, I have been asked for the Camaro model I made in the modeling tutorial. Awesome! Someone wants to study my work and learn from it! So I refuse to send it to him. He was unable to learn from my work and I abandoned my duty to help all those who are willing to learn. I am just a sick twisted fiend refusing to help those in need.I'm pretty sure most of you would agree with what I did and kno...Read More

Avoid Embarassment With Your First Web Design

Written on January 29th, 2010

Over the last few days I have been thinking about all the design aspects I want to use for Imantu version 2. At some point I starting thinking about when I first got started and thought 'I was an idiot back then' then immediately afterwards 'I'm probably still an idiot now'. In any case my memories of my first site design are not good. I was ignorant and didn't have a clue as to what I was d...Read More

Are your HD animations really HD?

Written on January 18th, 2010

Unless you are very new to Blender, you probably know that you can render both images and videos. However, while it seems like there are a limited number of choices for video output, yet there are actually a ton of them. You just have to know where to look. I am sure there are a few of you who know exactly what I am talking about and laughing at my ignorance. Here's the story: I was working with...Read More

Beating Spam

Written on January 16th, 2010

I have had this blog up with comments for a whopping 16 days now and I am already having issues with spam. It has never really gotten to me until a couple of hours ago when I went into a seemingly murderous rage over the fact that they have no respect for everyone else (along with many other things -- spam was just my breaking point after an abnormally bad day). After I stopped cursing and venting...Read More

Tutorial Updates

Written on January 15th, 2010

As you may or may not have noticed, I have updated many of the tutorials for the new Blender 2.5. I've spent the last week or so working really hard to get as many of the tutorials updated and have gotten to the point were I think I have gotten as much done as I can with the current Alpha version. Except for the car modeling tutorial, I haven't started that one yet because I am petty sure it wil...Read More

The New Blender

Written on January 9th, 2010

I have been working with 2.5 quite a bit over the last week or so and I am finding that I really like it. As first I was dreading having to figure out where everything was moved to and if doing something was going to be wildly different. I probably should have known that the creators wouldn't do that, but I was still worried. In any case, I think the changes are fantastic. Barring a few things th...Read More

Dark Scarab 4.0

Written on January 1st, 2010

Happy New Year Everyone! And to kick off the new year I've decided to give myself a fresh start to the site. The most obvious change to the site is the layout. Personally I love the new look and I can only hope that you guys like it as well. Besides the layout, the other new big thing is that I have slightly transformed the site into a blog sort of site. Yeah, I know, its not original or anything...Read More
