Ive been trying to do a character that looks like me. Not quite theyre yet but its getting close.BIOIm a 46 year old Software Engineer living in Wisconsin, United States. Ive been married for 29 years and have three daughters and two grandsons.
I always thought I had no artistic skill whatsoever but when a friend at work introduced me to Poser in Sept 2003 I was fascinated with what he could do. Bren is the person who gave me the nickname of digi-b. Anyway he took off for our division in China and Ive been alternately blown away and frustrated.
I posted my first image at Renderosity on Oct 2003 and surprisingly nobody deleted it and told me to stop wasting their disk space. Instead Ive meet some really great people and received a number of very generous comments. Renderosity is a fantastic place!!

Good Fantasy image..but I fear the fire from the handle of his sword may singe his cloak ;)

Hubba hubba! Let the quest begin right here by coming to Mama! hehehe He is SO gorgeous! I love that pose and expression and your POV is brilliant. I also love the way the lighting washes over his ahem body. :D I'm also sure Blasius' comment has some element of logic in it which will no doubt come up at some point. Hmmm... Awesome artwork!
