Thanks Greg. Sometimes my head starts to spinning with some of the tutorials.
I feel a bit dizzy now, so that must be a good one to look over all the little parts.

Hey Terry,
check out some of the "introduction to Cycles" tutorials, you need to know the basics of cycles first, at least thats what I think.
Nice tutorial greg, gimp 2.7 , nice one!

Hello! Thanks for the tut! I always wondered how to create this kind of stuff.
I'd like to make a suggestion: why don't you post an image with the final result below the video? This way we can understand better the goal of the tutorial.

Cheers!

Hey Greg, nice tutorial, just one little trick to save time unwrapping at the beginning of the tutorial:

"U" > unwrap. After clicking unwrap, on the toolbar at the left of the viewport, change the unwrap method to "conformal" and the uv islands should "align" to the axis automatically. (even better results if you "apply scale" before unwrapping)

I wish I knew this little trick before... ;)
