Next week Thursday class at new Hippos extension campus on IoW, stay tuned!

History of class:

This class was taught for first time April 26, 2016 at Happy Hippos.

About the Sources:

I started trying to make a drinking bird February 9, 2009, but couldn’t figure out how to move it and it stuck in my inventory ever since.  Then in January 2016 Shermira Atlass brought a sample that she had made and offered it as a class … So I merged the two together, made meshes, textures and worked on the script, and here you have it… The drinking bird!!

I made all the mesh parts and the texture.  Panda jokes for the notecard were rewritten from all over the internet – just search “panda jokes”.
