philnolan3d 252 Report post Posted November 8, 2020 That's a great use for 3DC. I've used it for illustrations in pamphlets before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
threedee 1 Report post Posted December 17, 2020 Greetings everyone My name is Urs i am from Switzerland and i worked as a freelance 3d artist many years ago, mainly for television ads and exhibitions. I did my first steps in 3d, in 1998. In parallel i am a music producer. The latter took over around 2010. But, i want to 3d again, need to learn a lot, however. So much has changed in the past 10 years and i am eager to learn 3Dcoat as my go-to tool. I look forward to version 2021, as do many, i guess. Until then, i just try to learn the basics with the software and hope, with the 2021 release i have the foundation to really get started. That's the short about me. Thanks for reading!

Callak 4 Report post Posted December 17, 2020 Hello! I started a career many years ago, as a computer programmer. I achieved a job working for a home improvement company for nine years, but found that my creative desires in that job were not being fulfilled. Towards the end of that job, I started to stress, and become depressed. When I requested a leave of absence to deal with what I felt was a building mental break down, they decided to let me go. Throughout my education, and later my career as a programmer, I often thought about getting into 3D modelling, and animation. I often experimented with several programs over the years, and I wasn't too bad, but not the greatest either. First 3D Max, because that was what the school I went to after I was fired used for training. Later Maya, and now Blender. Eventually I found the Second Life simulators, which allowed me to practice and improve my skills and make a little money on the side doing it. Now, I'm working on my first full mesh playable creature. Initially I intend to just make Second Life avatars, but once I am efficient at it in Second Life, I intend to apply my skills to other mediums. I bought 3D coat consumer in the hopes of finding an efficient way to generate normal maps for my creatures. I'm not the best at it yet, but I keep practicing and experimenting with it, and finding it very very powerful, I'm just clumsy with it yet. Give me time though, and I'll improve. Maybe some day I will actually make my own game. One can hope right? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
