Re: It seems to be impossible to find a job as a Modeler in this industry
he's exactly right though... if i do a search on threads started by you, the earliest one that comes up is 4 months ago. there are 18 threads, of which one links to your portfolio, and one links to a piece you want to salvage for your portfolio. then it seems to be an even split between help threads (good thing) and…
