And…back to 3D
Hey there, today, the inevitable happened and I had to cross back to 3D Not that anybody forced me, but I was really curious to see what will it be like to work in Maya after a very long break. I must say that 3D is so much more time consuming in comparison to the quick feedback you get while working in Flipbook.
