well rhino was an evaluation version so not much coul you create user added image so they all told me that there was also a program called 3D Studio Max and through my work I got a license for version 2.5 and then on tv, on a games program I saw that a new modeling program was being launched called Maya !

after maybe a year i heard it again and through my work i got a license for version 2 or 2.5, I do not remember anymore have to check.

And I watch movies alot and see alot of Behind the scenes and then you see that alot of movies/Sfx are created with maya and that changed my mind. Soon I will create my own short movie ! I am workign to that one !

First modeling then animation.

So you are an animation specialist user added image can you animate everything ? or do you have specific thing that you prevere to animate ? user added image
