Ah ha!!
I just posted a call for other London Hashers and then saw this link...I'd always assumed LAMUG was in LA. Is any activity scheduled in the near future? will be keeping ear to ground

Any other London A:M users fancy a get together?
The forum is a total lifeline, but it would be good to meet some actual humans

Hey! That looks really moody & atmospheric...love the smoke you did....How did you do it? Don't know about matte painting
The earlier one looked like there could be the vast dark ruins of a once great city way in the background......
camera angle really works...ground looks good too
Great work...look forward to seeing more

Couldn't see your film on the box (I'm in London) but I did catch it on your site last week....Classic! A real 'I wish I'd thought of that' idea...the kind that seem so obvious after you've thought of it...and really well executed....deserves to be seen
Good one!

I'll probably need to eliminate the smoke due to the difficulties with it.
would be a shame to totally lose the smoke as it makes a big difference...you're suddenly aware that the truck is in trouble & skidding & visually explains why it veers into the oncoming traffic....doesn't need much though
Great job!

ok, you've got me curious. But don't give away the surprise ending.
lol...me tooThe adventures of Jumpsuit Dave should be a major series

Thanks a lot Guys...I'll trawl through those and hopefully come back with a spinning prop etc
Chris...not surprised you're glad to be back in Pembrokeshire It's a fantastic place....you're a bit ahead of me in the modelling stakes then...I've only done two so far...but watch this space

I've never been run over by a bus(!) but that sounds entirely too painful. Hope you are fully recovered.
You are definitely on the right track in tackling the exercises in TAoAM.
i am but the bike was totalled...not sure if it was painful as i was out cold for a bit
Thanks for the encouragement... feel like I have the bit between my teeth and it make such a difference to have your forum to post to...you're doing a fine job
I've started modelling my characters in fimo/plasticine so that i can translate them into 3D more easily...can't wait to get started on that

This would be a great exercise to add some expressions and path animation to.
Thanks Rodney
You are so right!!!.... er...what are expressions?

Here's my take on the old FW-190 Fighter plane........jeeeez it's a lot easier to make a plane than a Giraffe...where's that legendary cow tutorial?
I'll try and spin the prop
Trevor
PS Message to Chris Wheeler...Chris I like the way you always take the exercises on an extra yard or so...also Pembrokeshire is a fine place

To all the new users that haven't yet introduced yourselves... please do.
Ok I will
It's about time I stepped out of the shadows anyway...You can't move in those damn shadows for people lurking there.
Hi!
I always wanted to be an animator but it was shunned at college. I got established as an illustrator and life took over....then flash happened...Great! Then a bloke in a cafe in Camberwell (that's Sarf Lundun to the uninitiated) told me about A:M...I rushed straight out and bought it...& left it on a shelf for two years. A combination of flinging myself off a motorbike into the path of an oncoming bus...breaking up with long term latin lover...you know the kind of thing...ANYWAY I'm back....I have my sleeves rolled up and I'm VERY EXCITED about it
Just posted my first ever model to the newbies bit (Giraffe..tricky and brain twistingly frustrating... but fun) now I'm doing the plane which is A LOT easier....I KNOW I KNOW...wrong way round...my autobiography will probably be called 'Walking in the door backwards'
Look forward to....well, all of it. And getting to know some other Hashoids. Anyone else in London?

thought that looked a bit small...so here it is again. Once I got into it I loved it...though there were a few dodgy moments eg attaching the legs, during the flip attach...when all kinds of strange things went on, and getting the decals to look half decent...looks a bit like his jumpers shrunk in the wash

Hey Rodney
Slightly in at the deep end for me...this was the first thing i did as it looked fun...subsequently spent a while in a dark place before seeing the light

Hey Neil
If you don't like learning from tutorials and manuals I fear you might find this whole thing a bit of an uphill struggle....I've been dilligently going through the exercises and have still not found it easy. Ground to a bit of a halt myself in recent weeks and would relish the chance to meet some other hashers face to face.
The sort of help you're looking for would normally involve forking out large wads of cash (but it doesn't exist for a:m)...the forum is a fantastic resource and I've found people very generous with their help, but it helps if you know what you're asking...and if you're asking the most basic questions, the suggestion will probably be to read the manual.
There are some excellent video tutorials out there that you can just follow step by step...apart from what's available here, check out the Anzovin site, that might sort you out
good luck
Trevor
