Wacom Cintiq Pro 16 - DO NOT BUY for PC
TLDR:
If you are a Mac user, you are good to go. If you are a PC user, be prepared to have headaches and spend more money than you should.
LONG STORY:
So my Wacom Cintiq Pro 16 has just arrived yesterday and I was so excited to use it right away. However, when I tried to connect it to my PC, I was so dumbfounded that the device only has USB-C or mini-displayport + USB-A connectivity.
Most PCs, such as mine, only have HDMI and Displayport outputs along with the regular USB-A ports. Which means I could not get the Cintiq display to activate without buying a 3rd-party cable or adapter (with varying compatibility issues) for the Displayport
My New Portfolio Website
Hello, everyone. To launch my professional career as a 3d artist I recently made my very own portfolio website, complete with its own custom domain. Check it out!
http://www.rafaelbenedicto.com
I will be uploading most of my completed work there. Also I notice that people have been sending me notes which I only read 3 weeks, sometimes even 3 months, later. I have to apologize for that since I've been barely spending time here. For those who wish to message me in the future, try sending me a message in my contacts page (www.rafaelbenedicto.com/contact) which links directly to my email (sgthunterkiller2000@yahoo.com).
Happy springtime!
Pepakura Requests
I have received dozens of requests from people over the years asking me that I share my 3d models to them so that they could make real-life costumes using Pepakura. Let me tell you that I have no problem with my work being used to make costumes. And I appreciate people's compliments of my work, I really do. But what I don't appreciate is people asking me to "donate" my models to them for free. You see, I live in a world where everything has a price and everyone needs to earn a living. Therefore I believe that if I give away my stuff, at least I should get something tangible in return (giving me "credit" for my work is not considered tangible)
Caterpillars in the Mind
Here is an excellent essay by John Alanis.
------------------------------
A few months ago, my Mother presented me with a Clematis plant, a
plant that grows rapidly, like a vine. They are quite common, and
supposed to be easy to care for.
However, my plant did not grow as advertised. It seemed stunted,
and did not have a healthy look about it at all. Was it a
defective plant?
I decided to inspect it further, and found an orange caterpillar
under one leaf. Then a second one, and a third one...and finally a
21st one. The mystery of why my plant was not growing had been
solved...it was literally being eaten alive by caterpillars.
