Not to disaparage the man's talent, which is considerable, but how many of you got taken by his selling memberships to his pay only 3d Creatures Workshop, and his 3d University sites? All told, the two different memberships came to close to 100.00, to cover a years membership. He ditched both sites after only 2 months, leaving the members hanging high and dry. Now he has packaged the tutorials he was supposed to put up on those sites where members paid to gain access, and sells them in his books. No amount of asking for refunds has worked, he sends out some of the longest winded crying letters I have ever had the displeasure to read, making excuse after excuse on how he did more for the 3d community than anyone ever has, supported us when no one would etc. Short of getting an attorney and suing for the lost 100.00, there is little that any of the thousands who did make the mistake of paying him can do. The attorneys fees would eat that up, so it is just lost money in another internet scam. Now though, I make sure to never buy ANYTHING he has contributed to at all. He defraued a large community of trusting 3d artists, who were talented than saavy.
