I’ve been in the industry now for nearly 14 years and wouldn’t be here without a few heroes: Chris Roberts, Dennis Loubet, Den Beauvais, Cyrus Lum, Kevin Cloud, Jim Lee, and James Cameron. Also a few friends: Craig Halverson, Dean McCall, Erin Roberts, Jason White, Tim Miller, Mynx, and my id Momma 4ever — Mrs. Donna Jackson.
Many more people have helped me keep my drive, enthusiasm, and dedication to trying to improve each year (even if only a little). However, the best friend I can make is the one who feels my books or my tutorials have helped him or her get over that hump of learn-ing and growing as a character modeler.
