Partial Texturing

I still have to put the details on the buttons but you get the idea. What I have found is that if you do not do something just right, Blender will not do what you want. It is really frustrating to sit there and know what you want it to do and not be able to get it to respond. But then it is amazing when you figure out how to get it right.

Me in 3d

Yeah, I guess I have lost a little too much weight recently.

I started playing around with Blender again to do some 3d modeling. The tutorial has told me I must make a gingerbread man, and who am I to fight the tutorial.
This is step one. Soon he will have candy buttons and the whole shebang. I think he looks alright, but the tutorial is all about realism. What is that about.
It is a first step that I am content with.
