"can u maek me a mnster pls ?"
Hi. I have a question (a serious one though) to 3d artists. I know there is some on the forum. The fact is I'm presently studying law and stuff.. which I found extremely boring. I had the idea -before studying right and law-, to study 3D modeling. However, I made the wrong choice and I just lose a year (very sad, indeed). My question was: To follow such studies, what skills are necessary ? I have to submit a portfolio, a candidature, do I need some drawing skills ?
Thank you in advance.
Well it depends on where you live and what school. fx near where I live all thats required is that you finish the peoples-school(0-9th grade). Then since they get many submissions you will also have to do an entry assignment I believe its called, or if you find a internship before it starts then you can get around that and get in easily. This one is free but other places in my country there are some where you have to pay hundreds of dollars a month, and live there.

Well, thank you ! I will do some research on my own and hope it pays off. Thank you.
I also suggest you try and get your toes wet in some software yourself. Specifically in 3D and modelling software I suggest you take a look at Autodesk software trials, for fx maya,3dsmax or even mudbox. They also have student program where you can register and get a I believe 3 year non-comercial license. Blender is also an option if you want a free software, though the learning curve can be quite a bit harder here and so it might not be the best for first impressions.
Get these props textured and they could get you a long way, when it comes to applying for studies anyway.
New students athat have gotten accepted into the school where I'm currently at have definately managed to get in with worse stuff.
Some general interest in 2D is always a bonus, but absolutely not needed.
Glad to hear it ! Thank you guys.
