Standing Up And Clearing My Throat

Hello Everyone,

My name is Tom and I'm a 3D addict. No matter what I do I just can't stop. It's affected my job (I'm now a CG Artist with Zoic BC), it's affected my home life (I work outta my den), and I just can't seem to kick the habit.

I need help...

I'm gonna sit down now.

Welcome to SFM, Tom. I'm sure you will meet others with your same- erm, interests. I'm sure we'll see some great stuff in the future from you.

So how does being a 3d addict negatively impact a 3d artist's job, especially at Zoic where I'm sure they keep you mighty busy?

It's not a habit, it's cool, I feel alive...

Actually, I'm on "Eureka." It's proving to be a lot of fun. DAMN! I've already said too much...

Thanks for the warmth, folks. It may be of interest to some but I was also the VFX Art Director on "Andromeda" for all five glorious <EEP!?> years of the show. What a ride that was. Three square meals a day and indoor plumbing - not a bad gig.

Perhaps I'll post some stuff from that era. But later.

So what 3d app do you use primarily?

I model in Max mostly. I just love it. But the jobs I've had lately want everything in Lightwave, so I convert from Max into Modeller and texture in Layout. I do enjoy Lightwave's renders.
