That's all there is to it! It just takes
time
and
patience
. (With
practice
, the time
requirement drops considerably — though
the patience allocation must always remain
high if you're going to enjoy doing any-
thing.) When broken down into “next
logical steps,” even someone who is rela-
tively new to 3D can model heads with the
best of 'em.
Remember that the finding of the “next
logical steps” is the single, most important
key to doing
anything
(3D or otherwise). If
you're not sure how to get to your ultimate
goal, just figure out what you can do that
moves you a little way
toward
that goal.
Do that thing, and then figure out what you
can do next! Now, granted, it is much easier
to have a guide to show you the trail, point-
ing out where to step and where not to
step, but that doesn't mean that you really
need one.
Your creativity is your single most
important asset; it allows you to be your
own guide.
Learning is a skill (just like any other
skill). By practicing this skill, you learn
how
to learn. Problem-solving is also a skill. You
can learn how to use
what you already know
to get you
where you want to be
!
It's as simple as that.
