When I stated out working with 3D rendering, I thought that anti-aliasing was a lobby against monikers.

I started to build a vector of a Gibson SG, and thought I might create an (adobe illustrator) tutorial to go with it.
The WDI has suffered much bad press on account of the discrediting behaviour that abounds among the disreputable. I am grateful to one of my peers in the industry for bringing yet another item to my attention, that being; the issue of awards and related practices.
