Last Feb 5, 2008 I order “Essential Blender ” book from blender e-shop, and by Feb 28, 2008 I finally got my copy. The waiting is over after 3 weeks. So far so good its worth buying. Upon checking and skipping several pages its really awesome master piece. It would introduce you to a wide range of possibility on 3D blender. By the next coming month, I’LL buy more books.
