[Q] Can you pitch this to Wes... CG Cookie Inconspicuous Mode, the website turns into an Excel Sheet, so I can watch CG Cookie at work in peace

[Q] there was a question earlier, regarding the use of _matcaps_

perhaps it's best to repeat it because it's buried pretty deep by now...

TIPS for watching long streams

Speed up the playback! 1.5x speed - even 2x speed - is your friend. Or slow it down if you need.

The mega collaboration cannot be stopped ✊

Our 3D backhoe model is progressing quickly toward the final product. Progressing past the initial block out stages, we're starting to finalize the hard-surface pieces of the machine. In part 4, I'd like to cover the creation of hydraulic lines (like I said I would last time), answer any questionable modeling situations like in part 3, and / or simply model in real time for an hour or two. However given that I'm predicting this a month away, these topics are subject to change.
