Yes, this is actually the .blend file I used to create the image on the cover of this book. Of course, you should bear in mind the fact that I cheated quite a lot and the rig for this character is far from optimized. However, that said, he has some decent texturing and I’m actually a pretty big fan of his hair. Not only that, but there’s a bare-bones character in this file as well that might be a little bit more versatile than Stickman. Not only that, but now you can see what a “production” .blend file looks like. Yeah… it’s a bit of a mess.
Either way, I had a ton of fun making this image. Hopefully you can enjoy it just as much as I have.
Wheeeeeeee!

Hi, is nice to see this site online again. I also wanted to thank you for the wonderful job you accomplished with this book. Its in my opinion the best introductory book to blender and this site the perfect complement. (Sorry for my bad english)
Thank you very much, Jose. Your comments mean a lot to me. Stay tuned; there’s even more coming to this site.
