I wanted to explain the comment below about me no longer teaching graphics workshops after 2011 (from good friend Brandon Reed).  From mid-year 2011 forward, I’ll be teaching fine art workshops (drawing, watercolor, and oil painting).  I have no plans on teaching Color Mastery or Freehand Perspective Sketching (workshops aimed at Landscape…[Read more]

I just signed up for the Color Mastery Class in February.  If anybody is interested in splitting the cost of a hotel room, feel free to send me a message.

We are looking for practices with excellent completed projects, concepts and theoretical approaches. The winners are given the opportunity to introduce…[Read more]

would anyone be interested in selling their used workbooks from the workshops to me? I live in Australia and in the near future, not able to travel to the States to attend the graphic workshops.

Thank you Paul for that link. It is really worth reading.

I don’t mean to be negative, but I’ve been after Topos for maybe 3 years now to start an on-line version of their magazine. Seems kind of in the spirit of the content don’t you think? I don’t take paper anymore – magazines or newspapers – and yes I pay for the ones that provide good content and present themselves well. How about an iPad App Topos?…[Read more]

Great. Glad to help. 🙂

I am using SU8 and that worked perfect. Thank you so much Wyatt!

It sounds like you want the photomatch view without the photo showing. Is that correct? Are you using SU8? Open the Styles window and click on Modelling Settings (the last icon). At the bottom there are toggles for the match photo background.

Wyatt, I brought a photo in for photo matching, I then outlined the buildings and faces that I needed to create 3D models of. I then used the orbit tool to move the camera which takes me into the 3D drawing mode where I applied materials to the faces in my model. I then created a scene with the 3D model. So, now I have the automatically generated…[Read more]

Dave, it might be helpful if you could describe more specifically what you’re trying to do, because I’m not sure I understand your question. The purpose of Photomatch is to move the camera so it sets the view of the model to align to a photo you are trying to match. Can you not use scenes to switch back and forth between the different views?…[Read more]

Does anyone know how to switch from the 2D sketching mode to the drawing mode in photo match without adjusting the camera angle? I have buildings outlined perfectly in the sketching mode but the only way I can tell to switch to the drawing mode is with the POV tools and to do that my model no longer has the correct camera view.

Thank you,
Dave
