I am a windows user, should I jump into the world of Mac?

Saturday, February 28th, 2009




I am 25, and up til now, I have always been using Windows. After my last laptop broke, I am planning to buy a new laptop. My usage includes work on Photoshop, 3d-max, Maya & I DO like to play some latest 3d games and of course movies… (I am not a computer programmer)…….I know Mac is expensive, and that’s why I am asking this Q….I might have to spend >$1600 on Mac whereas I can get top of the line laptop with-in $1100…… So, should I plunge in the world of Mac? Is it worth it or Not?

Thanks ALOT! :-)

How To Learn 2D/3D drawing?

Sunday, February 22nd, 2009




I have been looking recently into different 3d programs such as Maya and 3ds Max and some of the work that people create is amazing, but I was wondering how I can learn how to create art like this. I have looked on the internet but some of the software is really confusing so I was thinking that Photoshop would be a better start. Is it better to learn from books, the internet or is this something that you could only learn by someone else teaching you. Also is this something that you do start with 2d or can you start of at 3d straight away.I have also been reading some 3d and photoshop magazines and I was also thinking about whether or not these are worth it for beginners as they seem to target people who know what they are doing.

Thank You
