I get it, years go by, software updates and changes and things just keep moving along. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It’s progress I guess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Doesn’t help though when you’ve been out of things for a while to find that not only has the playing field changed, but they moved it to a new location – without a forwarding address. Oh, all the basic tools are there, but after being out of making models and playing with Studio, it’s like Christmas. Every time I open software, I get surprised by bright new shiny toys. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Thanks to a dear friend, I’ve now discovered some new software as well, RizomUV, Allegorithmic Painter & Designer, Quadspinner Gaea, just to name three. I’m now stuck with a learning curve that is almost 90 degrees. Not sure if I’m young enough for that kind of challenge but I’m going to have a go. Mind, having played around a little bit with these and some other packages, it’s amazing how much things have changed. I really have been slacking off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But, at the end of the day, the majority of changes are for the better, unlike some other software I can think of that just gets worse as time goes on. I should be grateful that at least I have a grounding in what I’m doing and am not coming in all fresh faced and new at this. I suspect if I did, I’d probably run away and hide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, I am very grateful to my friend for pointing me towards some of the new software I have to play with, they are awesome and wonderful fun to play with. I just have to remember that I’m not supposed to “play” with them, and get on and do some damn work. Work, hah! It ain’t work, it’s fun. If it ain’t fun, what’s the point of doing it?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
