DVD mockupblender.org just put up the Mancandy FAQ DVD for presale (actual shipping is towards the end of December) in the eshop . Sorry about the relatively late ship date, it’s mostly my fault- I’ve had all the tutorials recorded and ready for a while, it’s just the matter of putting everything together in a palatable package, and tweaking a few visual details. The eagle-eyed among you will notice that the preview picture here is slightly different from the the one on blender.org. Both are blender rendered mockups, that should be pretty close to the final artwork. The nice hexagon patterened template on the side should be consistent for all future Blender Open Movie Workshop DVDs (phew!) and is nicely designed by Andy, who is working on editing the second DVD in the series, titled “Creature Factory”. As you’d expect from the Blender Institute, the content will be CC licensed.

    Awesome! I’ve done an order. I hope I could get it with in 2007. Or… Do you think there is any chance that the foundation makes it downloadable for purchaser? I am just psyched. I hope the DVD is sold in high volume and it expand the community. Great job!!!

    Thanks guys! I’m glad someone wants this :)
    Sajuro - I’m not sure exactly how the download options will work - I’m not even sure Ton has decided exactly yet, but it should become clearer towards the release dates.
    (now the pressure is on! (I’m not 100% done yet) )

    Seems like the shipping date has been moved in January 2008 ( info via e-shop)

    Anyhow, we’ll wait ;)

    Bassam, I wish you all the best in 2008!
