New tutorial, a wip

November 15, 2013
Hey all,

I'm currently working on a new free tutorial and I'm really jazzed about posting it. Simply stated, it is how to make a speedometer and link it to a specific object. The same technique will be applicable in many other ways, but I'll add that in the tutorial :D.

Because of this work, I may not be able to enter the current Blender Guru Competition, but if I am able to, I would like to take a different approach and give you a behind the scenes type look of how I work.

Anywho, hope you get to enter and I know that you will benefit from the new tutorial when it comes out!!

Have a fantastic day!!

Thank YOU!!!!!!

Have a great one and remember to watch the time zone Andrew uses. If at all possible for you, to be sure you are on time, submit at the latest your imag...

November 7, 2013
Hey all!

This is a seriously common problem and one that could definitely use a QBT. I honestly thought I needed a script for this, but oddly enough, without panicking, haha. But, you don't need a script for it!

So, today, I'm going to tell you how to restart your scene, if your character falls off an object, passed the point of no return. I am including a finished Blend at the end of this post (some prefer it and I know it has helped me to look at a finished file). Here's what it looks like, t...

New Blender website

November 7, 2013
Good day everyone!

The redesign of the Blender website has been going on for a while, but, it was posted recently and advertised through the Blender Institute's FB page.

I really like the re-design. It is a bit easier to navigate than before, imo, and I really like the white. The store seems to still look the same, but I'm sure there is a solid reason for that, as it is one of the Blender Foundations' sources of income.

I totally recommend you check it out!
