Qexpo tutorial

Here is the mirror of the 8 part modelling tutorial from Qexpo 2006

Margin notes
In the intervening years, I’ve found new methods, created new tools, and changed my stance on some of the things in this tutorial. I’ve left the content of the tutorial as I wrote it originally, but where I’d do things differently now I’ve added one of these red boxes with my new thoughts.

• Day 1 – tools
• Day 2 – a first model
• Day 3 – skinmapping skills 1
• Day 4 – skinmapping skills 2
• Day 5 – rigging a skeleton
• Day 6 – a first animation
• Day 7 – the walk
• Day 8 – the secrets of the universe revealed
