Our next meeting will be hosted by ITT Technology Center, just east of I35 on
Hwy 290 East. It is about a block East side of I-35 on the West bound lane of
290 E.
Tom Guthery of
Med Flix and
Flix Productions will show some of his techniques of using Poser human
models in 3ds Max for Medical Animations. He will tell how he uses his secret
plug-ins to convert the models.
See you the 30th.
