As this site has a vision to help support and develop new modelers, we have started to review the programs that we will be discussing in the Forum threads. We have agreed a few deals, to be mentioned in our Forums, to acquire licensed versions of some of these products as prizes for competitions. We have agreed to review every modeler available from the free offerings like Blender and Wings, up to the industry giants like Maya and XSI. Watch out for special deals on purchasing your favorite programs: we have a few deals lined up that may be of interest to you!

We have been picking book titles to review in this section and we decided to focus on two very distinct types.

Firstly, books that will help you to become a better modeler and secondly, books that will inspire you or make you `want` to model better.

As we progress I would like to be able to offer special deals on some of these titles but for now will focus on raising awareness about a range of titles to support the subdivisionmodeling.com vision.


As our main sponsor is KURVStudios.com we have access to a wide range of training material in the form of DVD's. KURV has made their entire range of titles available to our reviewing team and we will endeavor to review all of the titles that relate in any way to subdivision modeling. Most of the titles from KURV are about Lightwave and Photoshop but more recently ZBrush and SILO have joined the ranks.

As a modeler there are numerous places to visit to get help, support, training and resources. These websites have been chosen as they offer something to you as a modeler: from 3D reference sites to free tutorials and videos to download. Our team of reviewers try to look at the sites from the point of view of someone coming to 3D modeling for the first time.
