Ha! I haven’t been around here for a while and weee!! It’s great to see you taking on modeling in 3d. 
Like the elephant as well (good thing you mentioned what it was), especially the Prismacolor one. Mucho cool.
A Cintiq, huh? Has anyone warned you about getting to spoiled? 
… just keep going like this, Beckiebot.
Cool, the elephant will turn out great. i really love your drawing style. Awesome work 
Not even getting a 21" Cintiq one can hate you lol
BTW - Congratulations ! Cintiq is a lovely tool, a dream tool actually, I’m still happy with my Ituos 3 lol, Cintiq ? mmmm one day… 
Great to see you’re doing some 3D now ! Can’t wait to see what’s going to come out here
Keep it up !
Hey Rebecca,
Haven’t cruised by in awhile and had to stop and say, what a great start in 3D. Z-Brush? Mudbox?
As everyone has said, your IMMENSE knowledge of anatomy is already jumping your work ahead. It’s just a matter of learning the new media. Will keep checking in to see how your 3D figure is developing. I’m most interested in seeing how you progress. Great job to begin wth.
Am jealous of your ability to invent views and plug in the anatomy details outta yer head.
Muuuuuust…ca…tch…up…
I love your self-portrait sketches. I really like the boldness, the texture and forms of the front view of the elephant. The side-view of the elephant hasn’t convinced me yet though – love to see where you take it .
Howdy, Rebecca3D. I always suspected your latent super secret 3Dishness when you whipped out Maya and modelled some columns for me during my failed Last man standing attempt. This is a good thing…to be multi skilled. Keep up the training. I’ll be stopping by more often to see how its going. Cheers chick
New RyanKingsAlien video I thought you might find interesting. Shows the rake tool of zbrush 3.

Hi…Rebecca…BUMP…LOL
HEY, I just checked a book out of the library…now I know where you are coming from with those dark paintings of yours…
Jan Ake Pettersson
…ODD NERDRUM …
Storyteller and Self - Revealer
FANTASTIC BOOK, and ARTIST
I never heard of him, until I saw his name mentioned by you a couple of times awhile back and have never seen any of his work…I was just browsing in the library yesterday, and saw that name, pulled the book out to have a look,…All I can say is WOW…:eek:
Now I have a new MASTER ARTIST to study and learn from …:bounce:
Goes to show you, that you just never know where things will lead you to…
REALLY REALLY LIKE HIS BRUSHWORK…THANKS FOR MENTIONING HIS NAME Rebecca…I have a feeling that i’m going to be learning a whole lot from him I think…
TAKE CARE

I am guessing Rebecca had her hands full putting together the article that is in this months ImagineFX magazine…great work there Rebecca!!
hehehe… yeah! just saw that one yesterday (really haven’t got to read anything of it yet).
looking forward to your article, rebecca. it looks mighty fine.
ohh! btw. nice to get a face on all the encouriging words and amazing drawings…

Hey Rebecca, just wanted to drop by your thread and say hi. I really enjoyed seeing all your self portraits. Did you post them in order? If so than it’s interesting to see the progression from a more completed drawing to more loose sketches. I think I like the loose drawings better, it still gives the viewer all the same information as the more polished ones but has more life to them.
Are you still modelling? The Freedom of Teach DVD is fantastic for box modelling organic models. You should also check out the Hyper-Realistic modelling DVD (I think there are a few out now) by Jeff Unay, and Digital Sculpting: Human Anatomy by Zack Petroc. Both have different approachs to Tareq’s DVD but are equally as viable. I always find it interesting to see how some of the top modellers go about making their models… each person has a different approach but reaches the same fantastic end result.
Anyway, looking forward to some updates and new art!
Hi Rebecca, I hope you won’t be so busy working that you don’t get to post your work here when you can! Thanks for your wonderful comment to my guestbook! Your great fabric work on the Ingres helped to inspire me when I painted the dress.
mmh … the lady’s right … Ok I’m not the best one to make some snail teasing comments , but in my case it’s pretty much like an habit …
Hope everything’s ok with you in the west … can’t wait to see more of your work here
hugs
cheers ,

Argh, I have been horrible about replying here…I’ve recently moved to Los Angeles, California to start teaching and have just been caught up with all the details of the move etc. A big hug and thank you to everyone who has posted such nice comments here.
For those of you in the Los Angeles area, it would be great to meet up! I’m organizing a very informal Drawing Group at the LA Zoo for Sunday, July 1 at 11:00 am.

The plan generally is to wait til around 11:30 for folks to arrive, I’m happy to wait while others wander about to sketch. If anyone is up for food / drinks afterward, that’s fine too, though I’m not sure what’s around that area - I’ll look into it.
Hope some of you can make it out!
hehe really great imagination, the deformed elephant looks most interesting.
I envy your future students, you’re a great teacher
Grrr! Another Cali event I will have to miss out on, since its quite a distance from the East coast you know. 
I would have loved to have gone to Zbrush’s event awhile back too.
Thanks nelchee, that’s really sweet!
Womball, heh, well if you come out for SIGGRAPH, I'll see you there. :)
