3D Forums/News
	3D-station: A nice french community.
	3DVF: up to date news, nice interviews.
	A russian site, with some nice model to download.
3D Artists (with good tutorials)
	Michel Roger His tutorials are famous.
	Colin Freeman Nice modeling and texturing tutorials. The making of a model of his son is really good.
	Second Reality SDS Box modeling. The head modeling tutorial is one of my favorite.
	Anthony Gibbs Hair modeling tutorial.
	Antropus Many Wonderfull tutorials about SDS modeling, texturing.
	Antony Ward Very good character modeling tutorial.
	Best source of photo references for 3D character modeling and texturing.
Resources
	MakeHuman, a free human model with many morphing target to create many different human beeing quickly. ppModeler allows to read and use the MakeHuman model and morphing targets.
	A free poser model, that can be used inside ppModeler. Many props are available.
	A free model called MayaDoll (and props) for poser that can be used inside ppModeler.
	Ease-Export/Ease-Import: a 3DSMAX export plugin, and the library to import the exported file. The windows version of ppModeler includes the import library. Definitly the way to go to import from 3DS.
	Darkling simulations which produces DarkTree. The windows version of ppModeler is able to use the procedural texture produces with DarkTree.
