- Note: The Internet Archive has copies of the original "Blender Art" magazine which has several how to articles in it. Unfortunately these are very dated and don't really reflect the way it works today, but it does contain information that is conceptually relevant. It is worth checking out. Check out the archive's magazine rack in general as they also have copies of Omni and Starlog
