I have purchased every book written by Susan Kitchens. I need the information, I need the insights and I appreciate the amount of work she puts into every title. If you use Bryce - any version - you need her books.

Even if you've upgraded to Bryce 5, Real World Bryce 2 can be the Brycer's best friend. Many of the techniques are still applicable! In fact, some of the "problems" noted in the text with the windows version of Bryce 2 no longer apply, they've worked since Bryce 3D!Susan is an excellent author and graphics artist. This woman is the Salvador Dali of the computer graphics world! Her books are indispensible!
Great examples, awesome artwork Rating:
5 / 5
If you've ever wanted to really understand Bryce and how it works, this is the book for you. It really helped me streamline the process of making cool worlds in Bryce. The color examples & awesome artwork are a nice bonus. Every feature in covered in great detail, far beyond the scope of the original Bryce manual. The author presents advanced features, showing how to make undersea worlds, rivers, & waterfalls using Bryce & Photoshop. She devotes over 100 pages to working with texture. Other chapters cover working with other software, rendering and realistic nature imagery. There is even a chapter on making alien world scenes. The CD also has some great examples including rendering tests & tutorial Bryce files to play with. There are also 100's of spectacular images of different worlds created by over 80 different artists.
