Excellent book for applying Techniques in Lightwave Now,
By Sea Horse (USA somewhere in the West) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lightwave X-Treme (Paperback)
This book is one of the most well written books on Lightwave, a 3d animation program. The tutorials Josh covers really walk you through step-by-step, and you really get wonderful results! It was very encouraging to be able to read through each step, and follow along succesfully, and I highly recommend this book for schools teaching Lightwave. The book is easy to use, as it is a large size, and lays flat on your desk. There is room for comments in the margins, and after the chapters, and the author has been wonderful in answering questions. This book teachs you basic skills from how to make an ocean fire, animating textures, basic lighting, and is a MUST HAVE for novice Lightwave users! You will be please with the results!!!!!!

This review is from: Lightwave X-Treme (Paperback)
This is my favorite book for Lightwave! I have been using Lightwave for several years now, and i learned alot from it. Its easy to read, and what it teaches you will work for alot of different animations, unlike most tutorials out there that only work for one thing.
