Woohoo, my books finally came in. I’m digging into them now, and took a break to grab a drink and write this. I’m so giddy, hehehe.

I’m waiting on a few books from Amazon right now.  I have been messing around with Sketchup some and gathering reference materials, but I really want a good reference book (or two) to use while I’m making some of the simpler models and learning the program.  I just wish Amazon wasn’t walking my order here.

Wow.  Looking for tips on character and vehicle designing in SketchUp I came across some of Justin Chin’s work.  Amazing. That’s the first word that comes to mind when I view his stuff. If I can harness a fourth of his dedication and talent I will be doing good.  You can check out the stuff he’s doing in SketchUp here.  It seems he is modeling his characters in SketchUp and then rigging them in Maya.  I’m going to have to do research on if Blender will do that, or I might be looking for some spare cash to get Maya.
