Awesome!

David is now working on 'Scarecrow of Oz'. Several years ago he won the Sci Fi contest with this image:

John's superheroes I'm still missing... they were fantastic... but so are his Kapsules:

Gerry's 'Bugbots' has come a long way since this image was first posted:

I believe this Tr0n scene was created by Ed (Lynch)?

If Sci Fi is your thing... A:M has the the modeling, texturing and animation features you need. Al not only modeled this scene but donated the highly detailed model/project to the A:M Cmmunity: (Thanks Al!)

...and Rich's partner in film (John) is pretty good with A:M's spline technology too!

...and speaking of missing in action, we haven't heard from Rich in quite awhile: Where art thou Entity?

Vern is quintessentially A:M (when he's not being distracted by 2D!!!):

...and since we are on a D&D fantasy theme, here is another from Will: (Here Will is spoofing/recreating the cover to the classic TSR Dungeons and Dragons Manual)

Malcolm is 'Malcolm Zinzan'. Everyone knows him as 'Zinzan'. He's an talented artist that has spent much of his life in Deviant Art ''obscurity'. Others know of his talent of course... but we here don't as he doesn't hang with us here daily. This is the image most here in the forum might have seen and associate with him:

Matt makes money with A:M: (If you are in the Detroit area you'll see his animation on TV) Matt has donated the cash pictured to the A:M Community. (See A:M Exchange forum for other model contributions from the A:M Community)

John just likes to tinker: (In this case... experimenting with fluids)

Kat is creating an entire world of fantasy (She is creating her epic adventure 'Just a Wooden Sword' with A:M):

Rodger likes to model his creations to scale:

The talent isn't in the program Gene... but the program sure helps get you where you want to be. Case in point... Here's what happens when you mix a talented artist (Jim) with an amazing program (A:M): How many features can you count there?

Mark is creating his own comic strip:

Jesse likes to experiment and discover his own solutions for his characters:

Nancy really takes advantage of her skill with hair and texturing:

Animation:Master is still the best there is for rigging characters. Raf, Billy, Mark and David and Holmes (among others) are acknowledged masters in this area. They've provided complex freely available yet flexible rigs (TSM, Squetch, 2008, LiteRig) but in some cases you may be satisfied with more simple rigging.

Jeffrey was an early adopter of Displacement Maps: (Terrain all created with image maps)

Gene... that guy is a machine... he's created what... 18 animated shorts since he purchased A:M last year? Obviously ease of use and a smooth learning curve are features!

Of course A:M excells at Character Animation: (Extra points to anyone who can name all the artists represented here! No cheating... don't look at the film credits.)

Of course some of us are just here to learn and enjoy the computer animation experience. Projects like 'Tin Woodman of Oz' and its sequel 'Scarecrow of Oz' are available: Here is an early rendering from the TWO film by Will:

And there are those legendary folks like Jeff and Victor that used A:M to help launch their feature animation careers:
