Hippopotamus project started!

Today i finally set foot on starting this blog, one  that will cover my efforts to pursue better knowledge of  3d tools and techniques.
Because i needed a goal to keep me focused on this main objective , i chose  to use an hippopotamus as the main character. I will use it as a means to enhance 3d model skills, texturing etc.

The final goal would be to use it for a small game.

Main tools are Blender , Guimp and maybe Inkscape - basically will use anything that is opensource - both because economical reasons, and to try to add merit to these already wonderful software packages.

And so the adventure begins...
