Ballistic Publishing and CGSociety are excited to be announcing the presale of the latest 'd'artiste' title Character Modeling 3.
The eighth book in the d'artiste series features 'Killzone 2' creators Guerrilla Games, and renowned Hollywood modelers Gio Nakpil (Industrial Light and Magic), and Cesar Dacol Jr.
To celebrate, we meet one of the authors of Character Modeling 3.
Cesar Dacol Jr.
talks about his voyage through traditional model making to a successful push into digital model making for film and games.
Meanwhile on CGSociety forums, the art just gets better and better. The 3D Gallery is chock-full of the most amazing work from the great modeling community. Check out Olivier Ponsonnet's 'Vlad'
and J.Christophe Largillier's 'Gaspard Steampunk'
