Getting more and more used to Blender with time, i can say zero regrets to ditch Autodesk Maya, subscription sucks bloody hell same goes btw for Adobe thank god for AffinityPhoto. I was never the best Autodesk customer but in the end but i rather donate to the Blender Foundation when i feel like it or pay for updates that…
Maybe if they actually added stuff that is in demand to the newer versions people would have incentive to upgrade Blender is going to have a free pass to the top soon.
Anyone using Blender could suggest a non-BS tutorial/dvd to get started with it? Something that doesn't go for 60 hours but get to the point quickly and you can learn it in a weekend or so? Cheers!
Meanwhile I'm seeing more and more artist using Blender in actual professional studios. Even some friends of mine have witnessed the open-source software being used for some of it's tools in AAA studios (especially in the modeling department). :) Honestly, I don't really care. I never had the intention of ever buying Maya…
hmmm with zbrush I can probably jump to blender for modeling, but animation :/ I dunno. whole thing is the price point on whether this is gonna be fucky or not, and what you get for the price. max for instance hasn't had anything new worthwhile in it in years
