Hi all- I just joined this group and have about a million questions but I'll take it gradually. I've been working as an architectural illustrator for over 10 years and I think it's time to get into computers. I know autocad a little so I'm not a complete newbie but I'm my knowledge is basic. Here are my initial questions:
-3ds max seems to be the nec plus ultra-are there other serious programs I should consider-accurender?
-would you recommend classes in an actual school or are online courses or tutorials sufficient?
-should I "master" autocad first or try to learn programs in tandem?
-I'm currently on mac and I have become aware of the pro's and cons of bootcamp but if anyone can give me an overview....
I really appreciate any answers and any general advice you can give me
