references again...

[nookie]

hello, i'm looking for some good animals references (especially hippos) and I'm wondering if someone know a good site... i have a very slow connection and searching on google is realyt difficult...

Brother!!!!!!

you're like me, never update anything :) Anyway, animals eh, well im sure you don't want to spend money but if you do then you can check out "Thr Animal Motion Show" which is a series of dvd's that show LOADS of references of animals.

But since I know you don't want to buy it then I guess your going to have to ask Blackwolf about that. He seems to be "excelling" in references so give him a shout.....im sure he'll be able to help.

But ill keep an eye out for hippos if thats what you want.

[nookie]

yes, i know... i already have 2 open threads :D
mhm... i was doing the fur ball when i understood that i really, really, really wanted to model a hippo... (mhm, to say the true i just got sick to animate cause i really i'm not able to :D) soooooo
if blackwolf won't reply until tomorrow, i'll send him a private message :D
