I don't think I ever "mastered" softimage, so I have no goal to master
houdini.
I do feel like I can keep doing fun work, while impressing my clients
with it.
I can't say the same for maya personally.
I admit I have a huge chip on my shoulder around autodesk, but given the
past, we all do.

So I spent the last year learning Maya, and got to a point where I
can compete against people straight out of collage.
This got me a bit down, as I'm one of the more experienced softimage
artists here in South Africa.
Not wanting to sound cynical here, as this is a serious question, but
does the setback after years of expertise in Softimage to a more
beginner level in other software get even more profound when dealing
with Houdini? Learning Houdini seems, especially from a Softimage POV,
way more palatable, but mastering it would seem to be a different
story altogether.
