    Are you watching the Iowa State game? We can't even watch it here. Where at in Texas?

    No sports unfortunately. Just watching some tv with the family. I'm in Waskom Texas. One mile from the Louisiana border.

    I don't know that area. We lost the game so I guess it was OK I wasn't able to watch it. Had other things to do anyway like getting ready to make Xmas presents.

    I attended UT El Paso in the late eighties. If we won a game during a season we were doing well. Never picked up the college sports bug.

    Blender 2.8 beta is now out. They still have to do some bug cleaning but all the features it will have are now there.

    My initial thoughts are that it is amazing. Not a lot of changes to the modeling portion which is the only part you need for model making but the other features for rendering and animation are incredible.

    New real time render engine: EEVEE. It will allow super fast rendering for animations (comparatively).

    Here is a Youtube video on blender 2.8b software.

    3d Modeling for Complete Beginners - Blender 2.8 - Part 1

    Even for old users, we will have to relearn pretty much the entire user interface. The changes are that dramatic.

    Working the design on a momento/keys box for my daughter and son-in-law. They are both Navy Corpsman but he is assigned with the Marines so want to have something special.

    Did some digital sculpting for this pattern and still needs some tweaks but happy so far. It will be going into my personal library but wanted to show it off.

    That’s really looking great, Oscar! Thanks for showing it to us (I’ll bet there are folks who would like to purchase that!)

    Michael, thanks. It carved really well. Unfortunately, I am unsure on the trademark/copyright on the original image: USMC Bulldog.
