/3/ - 3DCG

So, I want to create weird shit like the webm here. Just random, surreal animations in 3d. But I suck at modeling and texturing. I taught myself basic box modeling before but I can't actually make anything complex.

What's the fastest path to actually produce something like the attached video? Should I just start from zero and try to learn modeling again?

I lose motivation super fast when practicing box modeling. Maybe I lack focus, or maybe the practice I'm doing is too far removed from my goal? I'm not sure.

I thought maybe I should just download free models from somewhere or kitbash collections and just try to rig something together that way (so, use pre-existing models but texture, light and animate myself).

Anyway, open to any advice on fixing my attitude / mindsets or just ideas for software or workflows that can help me reach my goal.
