Unhappy I'm just too dull...

I'm just too dull to learn light wave...like cummon, most people can draw something at least...I just look and wonder on where to start -_-'

Pretty sad if you like to say that, but hay, take it...I'm as dull as a lamp post, and their actually quite bright! So, maybe i'm as dull as a Brush, they got no light. (oooo, i'm writting a poem!)

Could some one please write a tute on where to start at least?!?!
Like, what the hell does this button do...oh crap, i killed it -_-

Like hey look! It's Wraith the little dull kid!...Man, i will learn one day...so any offers for starting tutes? Just to draw any thing...any thing at all...maybe...a simple, beach ball? Then something more basic?

All help gratefully accepted!

By the way: I'm using v7.0 modeler and studio and running on Windows XP.

-Wraith

Thanks once again!

you should take a look at the 'LW modeler UI' tutorial, and after that try 'bevel a coffee mug', that should get you going in the right direction.. ohh and you have to change your attitude too, thinking your dull as a brush wont get you to the stars

Wraith - how come your using such an expensive programme at the tender age of 13? That is my first question. I had to kill my boss and use the insurance money to buy the dam thing!
