thanks Shortay user added image

Well i've only been working in maya, which is my first 3d program for about 2 and a half years.

The key is working in maya as much as you can. Model all that you see like your own monitor, do lost of rendering test, read everything on maya and mental ray you can get your hands on.

Lastly never give up user added image

peace
