I said I was gonna go completely off the wall, so here's the start of my artists impression of one of them there Bog Eyed monsters!

Lol!

I'm scaring myself Fillen. Doing this reminds me of the Giger challenge. It's like free style painting, just letting the brush have its own way.

Update on mine...

Looking good Fillen!!!!!

Eaglecastle, that's one un-apetising looking creature there. 

Hello all.

I'm taking a break from the 3d world for this one, I'm modeling 3d images in my dreams, and that's normally a sign that it's time to play with something else for a while.  So I'm on my old linux based laptop, so I thought I would play with one of the vector graphics programs that I have on here.  I know I won't be setting the world on fire, but I'm going to see what I can create with this old thing.  

Here's a nessy.

Typical, Gix, considering I got playing with Blender last night for the first time. Least I know how to move vertices, faces and eges on a cube now lol. 

It's all good foxy.  Post questions when you have them, and I'll do my best to give you a decent answer.
There was a very good tutorial that really got me started at blenderart.org, issue 9, modeling a low poly space craft.

I use that method to block out most of my sculpts, then use the subsurf modifier, then switch to sculpt mode, and add multiers when necessary.

Zoom in and out with the middle mouse scroll wheel.

In edit and in object mode here are a couple of useful keystrokes (keep one hand on the mouse and the other on the keyboard)
Rotate: r
scale: s
Grab: g

extrude: e (edit mode only)

You can limit movement on the various axises by pressing x, y, or z

If you want, I started a Blender thread on the Other 3d apps.  If you want, post some practice things there, especially questions, or anything else blender related.
