I am more of a future 3D artist than an active one, as I only have enough practice to work my 3D program of choice. I have a handful of models under my belt.

Basically, I'm wondering if it is better to study a 3D animation/modeling course (MA 3D Computer Animation Bournemouth) or a Games Art and Design course (Goldsmiths) to get into the game industry as an artist. I would really appreciate any advice/thoughts. I'm transitioning from a traditional fine art background to digital…
