--well the way you talk about programs seems to me that you're being exactly bogged down by them... you should focus more on drawing/painting and care a bit less about what brushes to use and what not at the beginning at least :)

--In 3d you can spend hours mastering a program, this year for me is more about creation rather then study and no application

--I am starting to see some from some of sketches that I can make into a 3d concept now as well so I am concepting my 3d haha which is cool
