Here is a list of websites, tutorials, and people you can visit or follow online to
learn more about Silo and 3D in general.
H elp and Tutorials
Your i rst port of call should be www.nevercenter.com/silo/. Here you will i nd
links to a wealth of tutorials and videos to help you get more from Silo. You
will also i nd the Silo forums where you can post your work and get great,
constructive feedback from the community.
Next, pay a visit to www.southerngfx.co.uk. This is the home of artist and Silo
user Glen Southern, who has created a series of great Silo tutorials and some
very useful cool Silo Interface designs.
Then, you can go to www.ant-online.co.uk to i nd out more about me and my
work. In addition, I have a tutorials section where I frequently upload work in
progress threads covering how I create my models.

Reference
Time for some general artist reference links—all great places to grab
anatomical images to use for character modeling. If you look hard enough,
you can i nd free, average-quality images to suit your needs. However,
sometimes it is a good idea to spend a little cash on some great, high-quality
photo references—and here is a list of places to i nd them.
http://3d.sk is an excellent i rst stop for reference images, and a fantastic
place to grab pretty much anything you need. They currently hold over
200,000 royalty-free, high-resolution photos to download, and add more
daily. All this does come at a cost, but it is well worth the money.
