Acknowledgments

My sincerest thanks go out to the editor, Kezia Endsley, the tech editor, Kernon Dillon, and my acquisitions editor, Heather Hurley. It goes without saying that this book would not be in your hands without their hard work and guidance.

I would like to thank my fiancé, and soon-to-be-wife, Lua Gitchell for her continued, loving support even when this project cut late into the night.

In addition, I want to give thanks to my family for all of their encouragement and advice from the start to finish of this project.

My thanks also go out to my business partner and good friend, Wes Burke. Without his initial faith in me, and his patience, there is little doubt I wouldn’t be where I am today.

Last, and certainly not least, I would like to express my immense gratitude to the Blender Community as a whole. Even when I was first starting out, and likely asked many obvious questions, they always supported and encouraged me.
