The journey to see if I could…

Starting with the 2020 pandemic, I decided to see if I could learn how to make 3D art, both from a technical and artistic perspective.

What are albedo, translucency, SSS, normal and displacement maps? How do PBR shaders work? Why is Texel Density important? What makes a composition cinematic? How does light decide the mood of a shot? How can I make my renders better in Photoshop? How can I make use of UDIMs in Substance Painter? Why is Zbrush so fundamentally obtuse and unnecessarily convuluted?

An abandoned industrial space with exposed brick walls, graffiti that says 'No Gas,' broken debris, water on the floor, and barred windows letting in artificial light.
A close-up image of a woman's face with rainbow-colored, iridescent makeup and tears streaming down her cheeks, partially obscured by colorful, abstract backgrounds.
A woman with short gray hair and glasses sitting on a city sidewalk, petting a white cat. She is wearing a striped tank top and jeans. There are people walking by in the background, trees with green leaves, and a brick building.
A grayscale 3D mannequin head with colorful, iridescent paint or digital effects streaming down the face around the eyes and cheeks.
A woman with gray hair and glasses sitting on a bed, playing an electric guitar in a dimly lit bedroom with slanted ceiling and large windows, surrounded by framed pictures and decorative items.
A woman with blonde hair wearing a tiara, holding a golden crown, standing behind a man with dark hair and a beard dressed in a black shirt and tie, with flames in the background.
A woman in a black dress singing at a microphone in a dimly lit room with a grand piano and a man playing the piano in the background. Rose petals are scattered on the floor, and other people are sitting at tables, watching the performance.
3D rendering of a mannequin head with realistic facial features, no eyes, and a bald scalp, set against gray background.
Black and white photo of a woman with tattoos, glasses, jewelry and a jacket, as several hands reach into the frame and touch her lips.
Young woman with long dark hair, wearing a red bandana top, black pants, white sneakers, and sitting on the ground against a graffitied wall in an alleyway during daylight.
A woman with red hair wearing an off-shoulder black dress, standing indoors with hands clasped, talking to a person whose back is to the camera, in a modern room with interior plant and framed pictures.
