Hi Steemit, let me introduce myself

Hello everybody! This is me.

I'm a newly arrived Steemian from England who goes by the moniker GMuxx but in real life my name is Gary. I am an ex engineer and an ex construction worker who has been out of the job market for a while due to having Multiple Sclerosis.

I have had a very keen interest in art and in computers for many years and with the time on my hands I have decided to venture on a journey of educating myself in the art of 3D modelling. Over the past few years I have explored many software options but have finally settled on my main weapon of choice, The Foundry's Modo. I also dabble with Zbrush, Photoshop, Substance Painter and others.

I have a fondness for Star Wars vehicles and this is a project I worked on getting to know Modo:

Here is my current project:

I decided to document my journey by starting a YouTube channel here - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCw-TwnbyjtZa4EN_bJzTaTQ where I have begun to post tutorial videos.
I also post to VidMe here - https://vid.me/GMuxx

I look forward to getting to know many of you here and I hope to share some interesting content with you.

Great to learn about you @gmuxx ^_^ and congrats for your first post !

Thank you, and a Wonkie too 😀

Nice to have you on board! Follow me at https://steemit.com/@bitgeek

Thank you very much!

Welcome to steemit ! i just saw your post today. Very cool 3d projects. I am a 3d computer graphics artist myself. Have a great day !

Thank you! I look forward to seeing your work

Great to have you here! I have a friend with Multiple sclerosis, there isn't a possible cure yet?
Also, Drake's producer, Noah Shebib "40" has MS. Although not as popular, a real genius IMO. People with MS tend to get very creative :p ?

Thank you. Nope, no cure yet - just symptom management.
Richard Pryor was one of my favourite comedy actors - he also had MS. So does Jack Osbourne (Ozzy Osbourne's son)

Meep indeed 😂
