Yes, it's true. On the internet, I'm a rather dull, mild-mannered digital artist, but in real life, I am actually Superfrog.
"Faster than a speeding dragonfly, stronger than a flathead catfish. Able to leap ten hungry alligators in a single bound. Look! Out in the swamp! It's a bird. It's a boat. It's Superfrog!"

For me, ideas are like butterflies that are flittering around by the dozens. Just grab one and render it, then move on to the next.
BIO:
I began 3D art with Bryce 3 in April 1999. Before that I played with various 2D styles and techniques. Back in the mid-70's and 80's, I worked in metal sculpture and had a line of "frog prints" selling in stores all over Southern California and Arizona. I have been in art in some capacity since childhood. Since the computer came along, I 've pr3etty much lost touch with brushes, pens and pencils which I regret.

I don't know jack about Bryce, but the things you create with it are astounding. The dark --- light green transition in the centerpiece looks very good on the creamy background, and somehow I can't make it stop bouncing in my mind - it's like a cubic slinky going up and down in the air. Fantastic piece of digital art!

Very interesting effect Dave :)

Aside from taking forever to render I wonder what would happen if you used volumetric lights? Hmmmmm.... Very cool continuation of yesterday's experience

Cool effect, I would never had the idea of booleaning light with primitives.

very interesting. i love it when you push the limits with the tools you use.

Wonderful concept, nicely done.

This is so fun! I am constantly amazed when someone figures out a cool effect by just simply doing something nontraditional and out of the norm with the basic tools of the program. I cannot seem to get my brain to go in those directions. It follows the ruts of what is obvious and described. Nice work!
lemonjim
never thought of that, but I like it!
