Hi! Glad to know you!
It's a great honor take part in this very very great community. I live in Brasil and pay my bills buildind fisic models (in portuguese: maquetes). One and a half years ago I discovered the fascination for 3d creation. A friend of mine showed me Bryce and them wow! I just got mad! After almost 20 years building models with the use of basically a knife and my arms muscles, I got astonished by the possibility of creating things , ambients, puppets, historys(!!!) using just the mouse , the keyboard and....my old and tired brain! Things that would take months of severe work can be make in just few hours. I even can't believe yet. Of course I will be boiring you my friends with many many questions! I hope you compreend! One day (soon, I hope!) when I get better I surelly will reply all the help I am receiving now.
Well, that's it! If you like fisical artwork too, take a look at my blog: www.andrerezendemaquetes.blogspot.com I'm sorry it's still only in portuguese. But take a look on the photos please! I´m just tryng to get off my lazzy and make a translation for english at least.
I really talk too much! Forgive me the not-so-good english!
See you.
