not the specific plane one I am thinking about
My man! Thank you for that post! Those pictures will help me a lot!!
And I appreciated your reply. It helped cement the thoughts that I’ve been having in my mind with this. It was really nice to hear somebody I trust speak them. It’s like, you want to learn but you don’t want to duplicate somebody else’s style. You want to do something all your own and break new ground. And I love that. Learning new things is one thing. That’s okay. But biting somebody else’s style, no bueno.
I like Doogs. I like how he lays it all out there and makes what he’s learned available. And I respect you, and all the other modelers here who post build logs too. You and Kari and John and Carlos and the rest of the folks here, man, i’ve learned so much by looking at your logs and seeing how you do things. That takes courage to to post your work and your process.
But I’ll never duplicate what you do and call it my own. I’ll learn things that help, and do what I do. And I’ll NEVER be a negative presence in the modeling community, ever.
Man. I’ll never forget how Carlos and Kari welcomed me to this forum.
All you guys are great, and you do great work.
