None of you are going to make it in the 3D industry. The industry doesn’t want you, your “style” is irrelevant, and your “passion” means nothing. Studios are drowning in Chinese portfolios better than yours. AI is already doing your job faster than you. And no, your donut, your anime bust, or your cyberpunk alleyway doesn’t make you special. You’re one of thousands churning out the same crap hoping for validation. Entry level offers are basically nonexistent. They only want seniors with industry experience.

Meanwhile plumbers are raking in more money than any of you will ever touch in 3D. They get paid on the clock, not in “exposure.” They don’t fight for scraps on freelance boards. They don’t watch their skillset become obsolete overnight because Autodesk decided to change their licensing model. A plumber apprentice makes more in a week than you do in a month of Fiverr commissions.

You’re not a future Pixar artist. You’re not a visionary. You’re wasting years staring at a viewport making fake pipes when you could be fixing real ones for real money. In four years, a plumbing apprentice has a house and a stable career. In four years, you’ll still be on /3/, posting “rate my topology” and seething about why no one hires you.

Stop coping. Quit 3D. Pick up a wrench and complete your plumbers apprenticeship.
