WHY I CHOSE
HIM
Maksym is my close
friend and my teacher.
He taught me everything
I know about 3D.
He is one of the most
determined people I
know.
I really wanted to tell his
story.

4. How We Met

HOW WE MET
We met in 2021 in our city.
We were both 14 years old.
I went to a computer club and saw
him working on a very cool 3D
character.
I got brave, walked up to him and
asked how he does it.
He did not just show me. He started
explaining and teaching me.
That is how our friendship began. It
has already lasted almost 5 years.

modeling.

up. That is just his style.

for almost 5 years.
When I asked him why he spends so much
time teaching me, he smiled and said, “It is a
secret :)”
