In high school I spent a large amount of time learning and playing around in 3ds max, and did a lot of rudimentary 3d modeling and animation, then starting junior year I took several traditional art classes and built a portfolio that got me into mica.
Until recently my work consisted of traditional media and 3d modeling, these days I do a lot of work in flash and am improving on my 2d animation, so far I have only really have drawn from observation now I am approaching the difficult task of accurately drawing and animating from imagination, so far I have deemed none of this current work complete.
