hi Chuck, You're right i'v been drawing ever since i was a little girl, mostly comics and as i became older i turned to painting. I see it in my head and it's just comes out on paper. I never had the money for art classes just the basic in junior high and high school. I can't tell you how much I love art, it's in my blood in my soul. I'd love to show u some pictures of my drawings but I don't have a scanner. unless i could take a picture of it lmao! :D I did some small time work over at topps comics nothing majorly big, years after I started into 3d graphics I started with simply 3D 2 yes i know it was horrible! it was a cheap program to start me off on the right foot. For my birthday my uncle baught a used version of 3D studio max first version. I was so confused on how to use it and hardly no resources I was stumped. Years later i learned max's in and outs. Five years past I was offered a job modeling for a small 3d animated Kids TV series called the Lil Dudes for a local TV network. I never did any rigging or animation just modeling. That was quite fun, show aired for a few weeks and the kids lost interest lmao! Years later here I am. I still can spline model to save my life lol it still confuses me. You wanna know something funny chuck? My vision is not exactly 20/20, I can't see in 3D, meaning like those movie glasses that have blue and red lenses in them they have no effect on me what so ever, as well with depth preception is off as well, still my brain adjusts, I have no idea how but it does LMAO. I always ask does this look right or this looks ok, because i can't tell if it's off or not. XOXOX Sera
