Moo business cards are ace
Just received my second lot of Big Fat business cards from the good people at Moo. I've got to say that I'm one impressed chappy. The print quality, the presentation (they come in a handy, and hardy, box made from recylced materials), the paper stock (also recycled) and the rapid delivery all add up to me wanting to give their whole company cuddles.
To think that I was initially disparaging to them, after they beat us at the Webby Awards. To be fair, I did add an addendum praising them almost immediately afterwards (mainly because after swallowing my bile-ish grapes of jealousy, I actually checked the site out and became quite enarmoured by it.)
The only unfortuante thing is, they are based in ol' London town, and I'm based in Australia, whose dollar has plummeted farther than Paris Hilton's under garments on a saturday night. Therefore, it's no longer fiscally feasible for me to partake in their papery prowess. However, I do recommend to my peeps abroad to check them out.

New release at Ballistic: ESSENCE: The Face
Just popped up the web pages for our latest title... ESSENCE: The Face.
Designed for artists with a mid-to-advanced understanding of 3D character creation, the book starts with the photo shoot of model Monika and draws on the methods of six professionals to create a digital model from beginning to end.
Working as a team each artist develops a piece of the 3D character puzzle to show you how lifelike characters are created in a production environment. The Face encompasses reference photography, modeling, UV mapping, texturing and rendering to create a digital double that would be at home in a next-gen game or HD movie.

New feature on Ballistic site
Added a Ballistic artists' section to the site. It's a nice little resource for punters to get quick access to some of the luminaries of digital art that we have in our society.
