Hi! I want to create some car light trails for a matte painting scene. I'm using a "Stroke path with brush", applying Shape Dynamics so the brush size is reduced as it approaches the vanishing point of the scene (1st image). However, when I use a Round Blunt tip (to produce a more realistic effect simulating the light trails of several cars, 2nd image), I'm not able to apply Shape Dynamics for the brush size (3rd image). Do you know any other brush tip that could produce a realistic effect (such as in the 4th image), while also being able to reduce its size via Shape Dynamics? Thank you!

Thank you Harry! After reading several forums in which I posted the same question, I've decided to go for C4D. Here, I think you might find the threads interesting, too: http://forums.cgsociety.org/showthread.php?p=8000917#post8000917 http://forums.cgsociety.org/showthread.php?p=8000916#post8000916 Your answer was really helpful, thanks for your time!

I’m an architecture student from the Dominican Republic that is planning to study for a master’s degree in Germany after I graduate. Given that my Dominican bachelor’s diploma won’t be valid for earning an architect’s license in Europe, I thought that I could start working as an architectural visualizer while I’m studying. I’ve chosen Germany because of the following factors: • I’m an advanced user of Vectorworks BIM software, and several people have told me it has some popularity in that country. • If I learn German language, I could also try working in Austria and Switzerland. • Germany has a good economic situation, thus a lot of architects (particularly Spanish) are migrating there. So, which software do you think I should start learning to use? 3ds Max (which I think is the most popular in all of the world) or Cinema 4D (the one most compatible with Vectorworks)? Which one of them could make it easier for me to get jobs as an employee or freelancer in Germany, or any other European countries? Thank you!
