3d Schools at london or nearby
polycounter lvl 9
Hi guys,I am from Italy & soon I have to leave my country to go to London or nearby.
Here in Italy I don't ever have the chance to study 3d stuff in a school cause we don't have it (at least not good ones) so actually I am a self-taught guy,but I am pretty sure that at London or near it I can find the school that I am looking for,& here I need you knowledges to find the right ones
The school that I am looking for have to teach me all I need to know to be ready to work in a software house that create videogames as a 3d artist (hard surface & organic & environment,so...the ability to modeling/texturing everything is required)
& if possible,it have not to be something like a private school that ask a lot of money :poly141:

This. Look into art ateliers.
this ask to me 9500 pounds that is 10000 ...not so cheap...
You mean...drawing by Hand?! I suck in that... & to tell the truth,I know some amazing artists that tell me that they suck drawing with a pencil,so I think this is not what I am looking for
look at this post,look inside the spoilers so you can see my current works & my current skills.

Now,maybe that I am looking for is not a school but it's a software house that can take me for an Internship/Apprenticeship (don't know what is the right word) ...you think I am ready to handle a thing like that?
If Yes,you know about some softwarehouse at London that do that?
There are plenty of cheap (in comparision) video tutorials out there for 3d artists, but a knowledge of how to actually draw is vital, there are a few traditional school in Europe.
A pencil is just a tool for any artist. Its just another medium, and the medium doesn't matter, your understanding of art principles is what is important.
That said, you could teach a monkey to make stuff in 3d. Learning traditional / classical arts will teach you a lot more about art fundamentals and princples, a lot faster.
I will second this and third this! This is probably some of the best advice you can get and I wish I was given this advice much earlier in life (and my career).
I'm studying a traditional art course now and it is definitely improving my 3D as much as my 2D even though I'm not actually using any digital forms of media in the course.
3D courses will teach you how to use the software, they will most definitely not teach you how to be a better artist.
But maybe when I have extra money/time I can purchase those art course online right?I mean,around there are videotutorial for everything,so you guys know where can I find those? :poly141:
Do you have a portfolio?
Allows you to create a free portfolio.

I will think that people who couldnt draw before creating 3d models who now are very talented will have seen their ability to draw mulitpy x number of times. Different representational art forms are mutually exclusive in developing, here comes the cliche - 'the artist eye'
When I said draw I basicly meant princples of art. Besides you cant get more fundamental than a piece of charcoal can you?
Can you suggest to me some of them?
This should be a nice place to start
So now what is the next step? a lot of practice copying real photos of anatomy?
