A number of tips, tricks, techniques, answers to questions and tutorials I have written over the past few years for various publications. This list will grow, expand and possibly be modified over time, so check back occasionally! The text contained within is un-modified from the the day it was written and may be slightly different from the text in the publications, due to editing for space, terminology or daft schpelling mishtakes. The articles are mini-tutorials (in a fashion), and instruct how to create a specific effect by description as opposed to a step by step methodology. This way enables the reader to use their brain and actually figure out the terminology and exact settings, therefore learning a great deal more than repeating the steps word for word. Saying that, there's the classic step-by-step tutorials at the bottom of the page; most are hosted here, but others are hosted on other sites. If any of the tutorials I have written that are hosted on the other sites have broken links or missing text to accompany steps, please let me know so I can notify the relevant people to get these fixed. Some of the more recent ones (those further towards the top of each section) contain further resources, such as max files, sample mpeg movies (etc). If you like what you see here and would like me to write a tutorial for a publication or a bespoke training package, please get in touch.

Many thanks to Cris over at 3D-Palace.com for hosting these tutorials!! My bandwidth has got higher and higher every year and my hosting company threatened to shut the site down as I was well over my monthly allocation (which went in about a couple of days!), but Cris came to the rescue and provided me with space to drop these articles and assets on his server! Many thanks mate - all you lot should jump over there forthwith and have a butchers at the ace tutorials he's got!
