Quote - How does one become an "advanced 3D artist", or a "power user"? Be born with a gift and a silver spoon to get degrees and formal training? Bryce might be cheap but don't cheapen the user. I'm having tbl finding the gallery of one of the repliers.
Well, usually I do things on an "I try and it just works straight at the 1st try 90% of the time" basis, and I do think it takes a bit of silver spooning to become the best of the best. But most of the time it's just practice, practice and more practice. And trying to understand why settings produce the results they produce. For me to come where I am now took me about 7 years of practice producing a lot of "crap" imagery while getting there. Though I think the "i try and it just works" thing does imply a certain amount of "silver spoonage". Then again, I'm still not near the best of the best so I get to practice a lot more! :biggrin:
