Advice needed please

#1

Greetings,
for the past 2 years i 've been studying in an economic school, not a private school which you pay… it’s the free public schools you enter after your high school exams… (btw in Greece).
I never liked this stuff so i stopped this year and i want to go abroad to study 3d animation & vfx…
the problem is all the schools i have been looking require a portfolio of hand drawing, and as matter of fact i dont have any drawing skills or actually 3d software knowledge (due to my single core 8 years old pc -.-[looking forward to upgrade])… but i am willing to learn anything i 'll need to know to get in a colege. i believe i can learn fast things that i like…
so where should i start? can i apply directly to a college or start off here in Greece? there are some “private” schools here that can teach 3d animation or sketching & stuff… although they are pretty much worthless, but i think its a “cheap” way to build a portfolio…the courses last 2 years and its about 2.000 ~ 3.000 Euro annual…
What else could i do? when i upgrade my pc, a subscription on digital tutors is for sure…
but what about my drawing skills? :shrug:
any advice, opinions should be appreciated…
thanks in advance :smiley:
