Decided to finally stop being lazy and learn how to create my own 3D assets. All the other 3D art I made was done in Daz3D by purchasing character models and hair/clothes/accessories/assets and arranging them my way, but I want to learn how to create my own props now.

Since I've always had a thing for luxury and wealth, I'm going to start small this coming year, learning how to do basic props, like gold coins and bars, gems and crystals, cash and currency like Star Wars Galactic Credits. Later on my main goal is to create and sell my own 3D jewelry assets for Daz3D and Second Life (and maybe Sims 3 / Sims 4 ). Maybe later on if i REALLY like doing this, i might learn to do more complex models like luxury cars, yachts, space ships, mansions...

...but that sounds really scary and complex, so I'll focus on the little stuff for now. Hopefully I can make a "dragons hoard" style scene with a cave full of treasure by the end of the year.
