im good old 20!
I feel in with abad crown a few years back(bryce/poser), got me interested in it. Had years of CAD experince through school and my uncle gave me a copy of lightwave he got from work. Liked it but hated the UI... a frind told me about maya.. i tried it out. Seemed to click. Been using it for a while but havent seriously sat down to learn it yet... just fooling with it for a few years in my spare time.
