nuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!!!!!!! come to joburg!!!
Would love to attend.. notice is too short :(
Nice one... I wish more can be done for blender heads in S.A
Hi 3sie3wiel, please consider joining the google group and perhaps everyone can at least keep in touch. It appears to be the best option for now
I wish I was still studying at UCT. Sadly I am not in SA anymore. I miss my Alma mater(well expect the bloody stairs, genius idea to build a campus on a mountain)
I wish you guys the best of luck, It would be cool to see more Blender users from Africa. That Google map of Blender Users is extremely depopulated when it comes to Africa.
Would like to, but it's too short notice.
Are there regular meetings planned in the mother city? Please, informations....
Anyway, enjoy your evening. Next time, then.
Only saw this now - too late :-(
I'm a Cape Town based fan/user of Blender - and I use it commercially. (I am a Blender Foundation Certified Trainer too)
Please give some feedback on what transpired or advertise some follow-up sessions earlier.
Thanks
need to repeat this in the northren suburbs...don't want to go home to late...i'm scared of the dark!
Nice! Wish I could join!
By the way: anyone here from Gauteng? Maybe we could organize something.
Greetings,
Pretoria based Blenderboy
Hi Weskus, I live in Monte Vista... maybe we can do a lift club :)
@AnyMation, sorrry :(, it'd be nice to see you, we'll follow up earlier next time for sure
