David Fano is really good, he worked (works?) at SHoP architects in NY and has started a consulting company that show firms how to implement digital technology.

Plus he is very active on the site so you can ask him questions or request he do a tutorial on something.

checked out designreform. havent taken a look at any tutorials yet but looks promising. quite a few tutorials, thanks for the link… ill check it out when i have time to breathe

David Fano at http://www.designreform.net has some excellent 3DS tutorials. His are focused on 3DS as a design tool and not visualisation.

He also has good grasshopper, rhino, and revit tutorials.

Let me know if you decide to do the graphic comparison/evaluation. I’d love to take part.

copic all the way you cant get a better marker. If you look at all the top graphic illustrators they all use copic for a reason. they are the bomb digity
