No. You have to grind fundies, which are 2d (anatomy, dynamic figure drawing, shading)

yes, absolutely. drawing isn't required at all for hard-surface and procedural modeling, and even for sculpting I'd say the advantages are negligible.
just start out grinding basic shapes in zbrush. investing time in drawing when that is not what you want to end up doing is a complete and utter waste of time.

lmao what an asshole.

The chair chud is one of the few people on this board that actually knows anything about the industry

he doesn't know anything and if he did, the first thing he would do was not post with a name

Yes, but you still need to know anatomy, which is easier to understand in 2d than 3d.

3D hobbyists barely talk about grinding those. The industry is setup in a way where characters artists don't need anatomy fundamentals because sizeable studios will have anatomy specialists hoarding that kink as so the division of labor makes reality. It's not surprising I'd have to go to /ic/ to see any discussion of fundamentals? What was the last active bump-limit reaching anatomy thread? That shit flinging fuel at the turn of the year where some ex-med student meme'd ecorche as following his 12 step program of committing yourself to not picking up your stylus, which actually hoodwinked prospective anatomy grinders? I'm glad it lit a fire under my ass to think through how I'm approaching anatomy and why more methodically after seeing what happens when artists do not.

The valuable part of this crawling board is the occasional passerby sharing his wisdom and most of all the resources. Fundie fighters lurk and work quietly into the night.

But you've been making 3D stuff for decades and it shows, so why not pay attention to you?
