That sounds like a great idea Kris! And San Luis on Saturday or Sunday perhaps? You missed a wild afternoon in Santa Barbara last Sunday, but I’m keen to go again

At any rate, this weekend is party time to celebrate the end of this film!!

[Antropus]

Cool! BTW, “maybe” I’ll get two free tickets for Steve Vai concert in LA this Saturday…maybe

Cya,
Kris

Hey!

Could you post some comments if you go? I am missing it cause i won’t be in town. I really hope he does a second leg. Freak Show Excess would be so cool to see live.

As for the avatar thing, yeah this is a tattoo I have on the inside of my one wrist. The spherical shape does kinda make it look like a render… I should change that, heh. It’s the Elvish word for “twin” and my twin sister and I both had it done on our wrists, so it’s very special for me (well, all my ink is, but this one particularly).

There’s twins ? Wait a sec, that explains the whole post count thing. When you sleep, your sister keeps on posting in your name. How can we ever keep up !! :eek:

[leigh]

LOL no! My sister has a degree in Latin and teaches English. She doesn’t know anything about CG

[jlmakes]

lol, yea…it kinda looks like some SSS sphere, and I guess technically it is SSS :shrug:

isn’t the inside of the wrist like one of the most painful places to get a tattoo?

[Remi]

Hey Leigh…always a pleasure.

[leigh]

isn’t the inside of the wrist like one of the most painful places to get a tattoo?

It wasn’t too bad. I have a large tattoo on the inside of my arm just below the elbow and some of the shading on that one hurt like hell (especially the white shading, but white shading always hurts). That was the most painful one I’ve had.

Hiya Remi! :wavey: Good to see you too!

Yeah. She still lives back in Cape Town, with my parents. Hopefully she’ll be able to visit me here next year though
And yeah I do miss SA… well, I miss my friends and family, and Cavendish Square and the Waterfront. But that’s about it hehe.

Leigh!

What I surprise I got today! I was in Galway, in Eason’s and I opened up a copy of 3DWorld and what did I see but a texturing tutorial by Leigh van der Byl!!
Bet you’re happy to know that you’re being read by people all over the world… I couldn’t get the magazine though, it cost 11 euro!!
Any chance we could get a similar article for CGSociety though?
…please?

[leigh]

Heh I actually received my copy of that issue in the mail today I’ve written quite a few articles now for 3D World…

As for CGS… well… I am currently writing an article on UV mapping for it But I am tired of writing articles about skin texturing now, especially since I tend to hate all my actual skin work, heh.

[Gord-MacDonald]

Its my pleasure to say hi to the master of the ‘master of the posts’!

Gord

btw: lovely tattoo

[thx1138]

UV article ? Don’t tease me :drool:.
