I want to become a 3D Character and Environment artist in the game industry. I perceive games as the best way to convey my ideas.

The first time I realized that I wanted to make games was in my childhood. I, my brother and stepfather, inspired by the lord of the rings, created and drew a map of our world, creatures, their armor, weapons, and their story. Unfortunately, I had no source, not even the Internet, where I could get information about the way of becoming a game developer. This seemed impossible to me because most games I played were developed in different countries. Now I'm on the way of fulfilling my dream.
