Hello everyone, I just wanted to pop in and say hi. I figured this would be the right thread to do so.
Now that it's said and done, I want to thank everyone way in advance for their eventual help, as I know I will be asking a lot of questions. I am a first time 3D person, and as someone who is just starting out, I was so glad there was a program like this out there for free! My cousin Todd, who works for a big video game company, is a 3D artists, and when I asked him about what programs he recommended, he sent me the link to Caligari.
I plan to take this step by step, going through all the courses one by one until I get things down right before I try making my own things. I know it will take some time, but with a little patience, I will go from being a 2D artist to a 3D artist in no time!
Thanks a million! |

The transition to 3D artist usually takes about 2 years of dedicated work, so don't despair if it proves difficult and frustrating at first. Having a strong 2D background will definitely help you out and prove useful.
Welcome to the forums and we look forward to seeing you post your progress. :D |

2 years? Wow ^^; I thought it would take longer then that! :p
I was thinking about seeing if I could take one of my electives in the subject of 3D art, but first I have to see if my college has it (I'm going for my Masters in Music Education).
Thanks! |

Welcome to trueSpace Marie! Wow your timing is perfect...
7.6 was released for Free a couple weeks ago. WhaddaBahhhginn!
Check out the TNL! threads as well; in fact, tonight in the shared space (the Meeting Room) a bunch of folks will get together for a 'mixer' basically. They are a lot of fun, and a great place to ask questions.

There are quite a few Musicians here or people with Musical talents. 3D and Music seem to go together. Welcome to the Forums MarieBergantz, I hope you enjoy trueSpace as much as us. Remember we are here for you when you need help. |
