bump.
Or I'll ask in another way. Can someone please make me a list in order of logical priority on what to learn for lookdev in Unreal? Not interested in making movies but on gamedev but I'd like to know how to make textures animations, use volumes, materials and custom material (procedural, etc.), VFX, etc.

I'm going to try to make this as short and clear as possible.
Ok, so I'm a programer who makes video games. For the moment nothing serious, just small projects where I test some mechanics and stuff but I want to start the serious stuff now.
I want to stay indie wich means, working with a small team, wich means for myself that I want to do as much work on my own on the projects. Meaning me wanting to pick a new skill.
But since I'm not a NEET and that I actually have a life outside of my gamedev hobby, I want to pick wisely or I'll make my life a new kind of hell. I'm a very organized person but let's stay realistic, there's no way I can program, model and animate on my own, I'll never finish anything doing all that by myself (obviously)

So this is where I need your experience and advices. I used to draw a lot as a kid/teen (and was good at it) so the logical choice would be to get into modeling. But body movements/choregraphies/martial arts have also been a passion of mine since my childhood so I could see myself animating and loving it too. Here's my problem, I don't have a particular preference for modeling and animating.

Then what do you advise me to pick between modeling and animating. Like I said, I don't have any preference (for the moment) so I need arguments related to these questions:
- In 2020 and in the future, is it going to be better to be an animator or modeler ?
- In terms of time, what's the quality of work you can provide for 50 hours of work for each skill? (I know it depends on a lot of factors but I'm not asking for something precise here, just an idea would be nice. I'm a total beginner in 3DCG)
- As a game designer (and programer), is it better to have a total control on your models or your animations?

I think I said it all. I know it might be a very vague subject/question but all I'm asking or is some kind of vague idea/answers of what is waiting for me wether I pick modeling or animating
