My name is Andreas. I am a 40-year old (as of September 2007) German and live near Frankfurt/Main.
I do a lot of Poser images, but not many of them find their way into my gallery, as I do a lot of them just to amuse myself or create images of characters in roleplaying games I run. Those may serve me well as illustrations for my games, but I don't consider most of them a worthy addition to my Renderosity gallery. That's why there are not too many renders in my gallery, even if I joined this community years ago.
Recently (as of autumn 2007) I have re-discovered an interest in photography. I toyed around with a (non-digital) SLR over a decade ago, but now that I am slowly getting the hang of my digicam I feel that photography may be a medium I could explore some more. But how that will turn out remains to be seen. :-)
And if you wonder why I have no favorite images on this page, the reason is simple:
I feel that - without spending 48 hours a day here - I can only manage to see a fraction of all the great images posted at Renderosity. To add something as a favorite simply because it was there when I was checking out a certain gallery seems (to me) unfair to all the other great artists I may have missed only because I don't have the time to peruse all galleries. I know what I like - and I know who does art like that - but I don't want to favor them over people who may be just as good, whom I may just have missed because there are so many image to see here.
A word of warning about postwork in my photographs: I don't always mention it, but it may still be there. I consider postwork to be something akin to editing the first draft of a written story. I doubt anyone would expect a writer to mention that he has edited his first draft when he publishes a story, and to me the photo my camera takes is very much the first draft of a story, so to speak. When I feel that the photo is not quite up to showing what I saw in a motive I will "edit" it a little to bring out the best parts and gloss over the not-so-good parts. That's what I do, and I stand by it - especially since there is no way to please everyone. :-)

The head tails look really great and natural. I love the mix of full colour and shades of grey.

I'm still used to seeing them in blue, but grey looks very nice and cool too. Well done!

Thanks for all the nice comments, guys. :-) The fun thing is her skin is not really gray, but rather a light blue. Dunno why, but her skin takes to the scene lighting like a fish to water, and with gray/white light... :-D (It's the same texture in my "Take Cover" image, and there she looks blue, without any changes to the skin texture. shrugs)
