I model, in Lightwave, and occasionaly mess around a little in Blender. I model anything and everything from cars and spaceships to people and creatures.

Music is a must, usually via one of my Pandora stations. I listen to a lot of things, usualy its heavier stuff, Ozzy/Sabbath/Black Label Society, and the like, or classic rock. But  I'll range into trance/techno/hardcore, maybe a little coutry or rap sometimes as well if the mood strikes me. I seem to be able to zone out and get in a modeling groove to a good hardcore or trance mix sometimes, and get some serious work done rather quickly. As long as the music is good tho, I'm good to go.

Usually model about 12 hours a day, spell that with a break for shooting pool/watching baseball, and another one for playing guitar, maybe some food in there as well. Rinse, wash, repeat, as they say.

I model mostly late afternoon, evening, and night, on into the early morning.

Inspiration comes from everything, mostly seeing top notch work from other artists.

I like modeling the most, and texturing second, unfortunately, between the two lies UV mapping, and I don't usually get on with that so much.

Rituals? I...uhh...sacrifice, goats and sometimes noobs should I find any nosing about, asking too many questions...mostly goats tho...mostly. 😉
