3) What does it take to get started?
4) Any recommandation of resources (tutorials, websites, etc)?
1) One year, started on december 2003.
2) The abstract 3d ones are from scratch. First I make a render in Cinema 4d and then open it in Photoshop and touch it up there. The non abstract ones I grab some stock photos and blend them together. There is also some vector work in there, made just with Photoshop's pen tool
3) I started with photoshop and a lot of free time. That's pretty much all you need!
4)
http://www.pixel2life.com and
http://www.shiver7.com have some good tutorials, but you can find the best resources at deviantART
