I went the other way - I used to be a musician. The last CD I produced had a 3D rendered cover, made in POV-Ray (a 66MHz 486 rendered it in just one night! Wow!). Then I discovered Poser, and music went out of the window, along with my spare time and the rest of my money. Actually, buying 3D stuff is cheaper than buying guitars. So far. :) Or, was my musical creativity declining anyway, and 3D jumped in to fill the gap?
