Hey everyone, I’m getting back into 3D modeling after a long break. The last time I touched modeling was in a college elective years ago, and I used Maya back then. Now I see so many people using Blender. I’d like to ask: should I switch to Blender for my current projects? What are the main advantages of Blender compared…
Hi everyone! This is my first time posting on Polycount, and I would like to present this character study based on a fantastic concept by HuaidonG Liu (ArtStation - HuaidonG Liu) .

Hello again Polycount. Long time.I'm relearning everything.I haven't done any 3d for about 10 years. Lots of life (and almost death) stuff got in the way and it got pushed out.
