This shocked me - Skydancer was one of my earliest influences when I first started using Bryce in the summer of 1997.....her work was head and shoulders above anybody else's regarding technique and sheer creative vision.

If I missed a post at the time of her death in August I apologise, otherwise, I'd like to record my admiration for a true Bryce pioneer.  

I have yet to see a more consistently creative and powerful body of Bryce-created work than her "Copperworld" series - tits, swords, temples and Vickys weren't necessary in them days.....

My self-build system - Vista 64 on a Kingston 240GB SSD, Asus P5Q Pro MB, Quad 6600 CPU, 8 Gb Geil Black Dragon Ram, CoolerMaster HAF932 full tower chassis, EVGA Geforce GTX 750Ti Superclocked 2 Gb, Coolermaster V8 CPU aircooler, Enermax 600W Modular PSU, 240Gb SSD, 2Tb HDD storage, 28" LCD monitor, and more red LEDs than a grown man really needs.....I built it in 2008 and can't afford a new one, yet.....!

My Software - Poser Pro 2012, Photoshop, Bryce 6 and Borderlands......"Catch a  r--i---d-----e-----!"

My condolances to all of Skydancers friends and family.  She was an inspiration to me when I was first starting out in Bryce.  I eagerly anticipated her posts to the Bryce yahoo group  which she was a moderator of.

My condolances...

I visited her page and was reading her bio and she mentions that she started doing computer graphics on a Commodore 64.  Does anyone know if there are any of that artwork available anywhere? I'm a big fan of the 8-Bit Era and the Commodore 64 was my first computer and would love to see what kind of artwork she was doing on it.

I used to poke fun at her for being a ninja.
