Is this a waste of money? Created 17 years ago2006-07-10 22:38:27 UTC by Xyos212

I want to master XSI and become quite professional with it. Ive been learning alot from "digital tutors", and I was thinking about buying their tutorials. (Ive tried looking for it on file sharing/web, no luck)

They are all video tutorials, easy to follow, and cover almost everything in XSI from NURBS, character rigging, face modeling, weight maps, etc......

So anyway, its 250.00 US! Is it worth it?

Hello. No.

i'm sure you san get decent ones for free, or even one of them books for 50 bucks or watever.....definately not worth it.

It all depends on how far you want to go with it.
If you say you're starting to get semi-professional, try to get hired somewhere. And see if they require higher skills of you.
Other than that, i wouldnt..

There're about six hours of free videos and good forums over at 3DBuzz. Highly recommended.

Get a few books at that price, usualy stacked with more info then video tutorials.

I was going to get that mapping/modeling book for HL2, but I dont think its out yet...

250 USD is a bit much to spend on video tutorials.

It's a bit much to spend on anything. Don't.

Man, I wish I could find a torrent for this :(. Ive decided to buy a new computer desk with the money instead. XD

Another waste.... :/

A desk is a waste? If you had my desk you wouldnt think so. It wobbles when I type! XD
