Why does it depress you? Most 2D/3D skills are interchangeable. I have seen many 3D artists step into drawing and advance to /int/ tier in a few weeks too.

Why wouldn't he, the only skills he's missing is knowing which button does what. That does take 2-3 months to learn. Learning to draw/sculpt, that takes years

It's pretty natural. From what I've seen, going from 2D to 3D is way smoother than going from 3D to 2D. The technical hurdle of learning the program is not that much of a problem compared to drawing 3d forms from imagination, without a software doing 90% of the work.

speaking as an /ic/-fag dipping my toes into /3/ due to gamedev, it's just not that big of a jump. and the computer does all the caulcuation and keeps everything in literally perfect perspective for me, no matter the angle, which means i'm honestly thinking slightly less hard than when i draw. when i'm doing the ref sheet to model from i also just draw half of 1 flat fate, then mirror it, so that part is pretty nice too.the only worrying part of doing blender 3D now is that i might let my 2D skills slip without hard practice.

I've seen this a few times. However before you get down on yourself, eveluatie whether or not theyŕe just skipping all the fundamentals by kitbashing professional assets or not.There was this one girls portfolio who was basically just a complete nepo by having access to the assets of her boyfriends media company, using their rigs/mocap and rendering workflow. This allowed her to make good looking stuff but she didn actually make anything nor would understand what she was doing. Its just a strategy to land some corpo CGI middle manager job

As an /ic/ fag myself, just go through the 2D Pipeline. I also started learning 3D mainly to improve my 2D knowledge, it all intersects with each other. Nowadays I am mainly 3D because it's more fun but I still like to draw.If you make a character you need anatomy. If you want to make a nice scene you need composition. If you want a good texture you (might) want to handpaint it.

As a turbo giga fag who draws both in digital and trad, sculpts in clay and models in blender, and does animation and game programming, everything I learn makes everything else easier.The problem is that a single person still can't finish anything worth shit. Even if you would wish to be super skilled (which you're only going to get from a combination of smaller transferable skills), you're still going to be at your best doing one thing in a team.

Good 2d artists have the same understanding of 3d shapes, composition, rendering, that a 3d artist should have, all he really has to learn is a new toolset. I guarantee it took him longer than 3 months to become a good 2d artist, and it's also very likely that he was playing around with 3d before he felt comfortable sharing his 3d work.

i wish, every time i come back to give blender a try i literally learn everything and have to start again because nothing makes sense and everything is unintuitive as possible. I'll spend an hour straight learning how to actually apply textures to a cube and by the time i figure it out i get tired of it and simply leave, drawing sucks to learn but atleast your actually drawing. 3D modeling is like if your pencil sprouted legs and ran around the house and the only way to get it to obey you is whispering a specific set of magic words that change everyday only once you get that right can you start making toddler scribbles
