Beginning
It's been ages since I've last used maya, but decided that I want to start working with it again. Just for private development.
Now I know that i'm not the most creative person. Which I think could very much be a problem.
The thing is, I actually love animating, and I kinda want to get into that.
So would it be advisable to start animating immediately, or should I start modeling first, and animate later?
Thanks allready,
SilverBlood

''For only 5 bucks you can make a whole PIXAR movie in a week!! Spend no less than ten minutes a day creating the animation of your dreams, impress your friends even your dog!!'' Learning is so fast it'll make your 100 year old grandma look like shes wading thru treacle!!!
No...it wont happen fast..if it does it will be crap and you'll have wasted your own time.
good learning happens at a good pace...heed the words of your peers

When I did some small animations (things like a bouncing ball, some Ncloth, and other small things) I got to see "results" quickly. Even if you have to fiddle with that one setting for over 3 hours, you still see it change everytime.
I definately don't expect to become a pixar animator, I don't even have that much free time. I do however want to start basic, and get more and more advanced as I go.
So in short, my original question again: Should I start with modeling, or can you dive straight into animating?
