Nice new piece over at ZNK

another little piece from the boys in madrid. It might be just me but the only thing that niggles me is the radiosity artefacts on the render. (the flickering on the surfaces) other than that there are some other great little animations on the site, and i really love the super saturated candy colors.

and there are 3 free fonts at the bottom of the page.

Firstly some good news for film lovers everywhere!

Ah, some genuinely good news on the Uwe Boll front ...

We've wondered aloud on more than one occassion on just how exactly it is that Uwe Boll continues to find financing for his films considering that they just flop abysmally, one after the other. Turns out the answer is simple enough ... Boll has been utilizing a loophole in German tax law that allows private investors a hefty tax write off on funds invested into failed films. Boll's films are proven failures, that's for damn sure, so he has no problems whatsoever attracting savvy German investors looking to turn a tax profit by losing money on his films.

Notice the past tense in 'has been utilizing'? That's because the good German people have seen fit to close that particular tax loophole. Effective January 2006 German films that lose money will be only that, German films that lose money. No more incentive to invest in bad films means Boll's stream of investors has just dried up. Better learn to make a decent film that turns a profit, Doc, or your career just went up in smoke ...
