More Experiments in Blender

Been having some more fun with blender, made a sort of demon head sculpt then started to mess around with the materials and created this render, makes my basic model look pretty cool.

For a free application its a very powerful tool, there's far more to learn such as textures and lighting but its fun to mess about with and see what i can do.

Having been looking for a 3d modelling software and trying a few out, I decided to give blender a go since there working on a new version, while the 2.5 release is currently alpha 2 it seems abit unstable, so I installed the older 2.49 release. The interface is not like anything I have used before but after some hunting around for information and a few tweaks to get myself a quad view going, i have had a fw quick goes at making something. Havent yet worked out all the polygon modelling side but I already like the multi-res mesh sculpting mode.

Here's a shot of my interface and a quick sculpt test.

Hopefully given a bit of time I can learn to make more interesting stuff, but for a free application its fun to mess around with.
