If anyone could give me a lead on where I could find inexpensive, used or new books on 3D studio. They all seem to be in the $70 range.

Acutally Robert most of them list for $50. 3D Studio Special Effects and Inside 3D Studio. Nancy Fultons 3D Studio Applied is $39.95 and her upgrade add-on book that is a must buy for IK Sells for $15.00 If $70 is above your ceiling for good reference material I've got to ask you how you ever scraped up the money for 3D Studio. I don't mean this in a sarcastic way, I know a lot of folks are struggeling to get in to and keep up with this technology, I'm just curious how _you_ did it. Murph'

Thanks Murph I'm taking a course and don't yet have 3D studio. And they won't allow me to take the manual home. I'm saving for a student version. Also I quoted Canadian prices, Inside 3D studio sells for $75. here and with tax its about $90. Whew!

Geezzz! Get thee to a Stateside Dealer! <BG> You always wanted to come to Sunny Wisconsin for some Trout Fishing didn't you? That's if you come now…of course you could wait until we have our 3D Artists Conference and Seminars in Aug. the 14th, 15th, and 16th. That way you could take classes, enjoy the night life and even pick up some 3DS Related Stuff at good prices as well as possible win some Really Neat Software. Think about it! What the Heck fill up a Bus Load and come on Down! Tell Ya What! You Bring 5 people with you and I'll personally Bab-B-Q Some of those Big Ol' Texas Ribs for all to enjoy…Deal? Murph'
