Constraints plus

Started back in blender working with constraints watching Chris Kuhn via CG Cookie and having his book “Death to Armatures” it is great to see other objects working like this and gives me quite a few ideas for some of the projects I am currently working on.

I have been having trouble with the site lately. When I have tried to sign in and create a new post everything I type is blank, as if the font color was set to white. The cursor moves as if I am typing and when I select ‘Preview’ the post shows up as written but what the heck, I can’t see while I am typing. Ok, I’m not all that bad in the typing arena (70+ wpm with very minimal errors) but I want to see. I hope I have that fixed and will start posting more often than I have been.

Purchased a new phone this weekend, a Samsung Galaxy Note 3. After diligently searching for any and all reviews both written and Youtube, and finding just about zero negative ones I decided to go with that phone. Wouldn’t you know, right off the bat, when bringing it to work for the first time I leave it there. Bone head! Jeff was there to hide it away in a file cabinet till I get back to be safe.

Back to being constrained by Blender!

Time to get back

I have been away for a bit trying to work through some kidney stones and didn’t really feel up to sitting in front of the computer after I got home. Last week a good friend provide me some home brewed ‘tea’ if you will, something he and his wife use at times. I guess you could call it a sort of homeopathy type of treatment. Well all I can say is I am not quite sure what helped more, the constant hydration I was doing to myself of the addition of his remedy but whatever it was it seemed to have worked and I am feeling much better now. Time to get back in the saddle and start blending and working in Unity/UE4 again.

Is this the day?

Today (7/2/2014) is supposed to be the day of the big announcement. That announcement is the sale of SpiritAerosystems to whomever is purchasing this company, specifically in Tulsa, OK. Do I think we will have any announcement today? No I do not and the reason for this is we, our team has been working on the transition of our legacy systems to the SAP product for the last two years and are just about complete during which time we have heard more times than I can remember about an announcement to be made on ‘x’ date and it has never happened.

I personally am hoping it does not happen again.

Edit: No announcement today 🙂
