"....I am French 31 years old made a formation last.... " God you guys really take on everything and everyone on this forum, don't you....I mean Aussies, Schotsmen...fine I can live with that.....but the french come on, you really go substandard on this one ..only joking of course . But since we are talking about substandard, how about accepting someone from the netherlands . Well I am Martin I am 30 years old ( sigh)and as mentioned before I am dutch, I used to be a carpenter...no not the craftsman kind who builds really delicate cabinets and stuff, no I was( and for a large part still am) the beer drinking, cursing, shouting at the ladies kind of carpenter...like a hobbit with a misdemeanor . I did that up until about when I reached my mid 20's and decided to take a step towards the thing I liked to do which is 3D and started working at a software reseller ( which sells software like Maya/Nuke/Flame and so on to the dutch VFX industry), needless to say I am still waiting for Mr Muren from ILM or mr Lasseter from PIXAR to personally invite me to work at their respective companies for a measely 400 K a year...which for some odd reason still hasn't happened ...don't they know I am the best?...LOL. For the past couple of months I am really pushing my skills as a character artist and am working on assets and workflows to put in a little thing called a showreel... I can be found on this forum on a regular basis trying to act smarter than I really am basically LOL.
