If they would make it the same size as the note 2, I would definitely upgrade. The camera sounds great on that.

Just to add to this rant. Why do I still feel bad turning down a potential new client; when: they expect 7 day turnaround on a huge hotel exterior set, try to beat me up on pricing, go incommunicado for 2 days while waiting to finalize contract definitions while trying to maintain the same deadline, etc. And then I respond to their email saying that it is a bad business practice to leave them hanging with a " I wish you and your company all of the best of luck " I had to rewrite that email like 5 times before I settled with a response that was kind.

I received my computer a couple of weeks ago. Nice clean build. It was nicely packaged when it shipped. Now I just have to wait for the new release of Thea to see what the gpu is capable of.

Great design! You could probably sell many more of those.

I really liked your example Pilou! I had to do the ball in a cube.

I am glad everyone likes the models. I will continue to trickle them in here when I have a free moment. Here is a quick and easy coffee table I needed for a scene not to long ago.

Thank you very much Gus. These will come in handy.

Stephan, I use Thea render for all of my rendering needs. In the past, I have used Kerkythea and Twilight along with trying out many others. Thea is one of the most versatile rendering applications out there. Check out a demo and try it out.

Great model! That is a very nice wicker texture.

Everyone loves a leg with curves.
