BIO
Started in 1981 with graphical simulation of industrial robots - part of my studies of math in Stuttgart (Germany). Then, by accident, 1984 Bavaria Film asked me to do computer animations for Enemy Mine (director Wolfgang Peterson, produced in Munich, Germany). That was my start into the more creative part of the business. From there on til 1991 i worked as an animation designer with several sorts of software (BTS FGS 4000, TDI, ...). We did commercial animations but tought students (from the Stuttgart Academy of Art) as well (half-half). After that i had the opportunity to make a move into event and "classical" design business. And there I still am - doing mostly print design in a little agency I am running with some friends. I kept always an eye on the 3D business, but only with the appearance of Vue d'Esprit on Mac i found a sort of way back into 3D graphics. This software for me is the ideal combination of easy-to-use and quality results so it was great fun to work with from the first moment on. Let's see where this all will drift to - who knows.

So it's "When penguins fly" instead of pigs now? I must say I love the lush tropicals you are testing. I can't wait until they are available. Thanks for starting the new year off right with flying penguins. Happy New Year to you!

ROFL! I knew they had happy feel but I also understand that they can fly now when hairy spiders suddenly get to be the size of trucks! Fantastic one, Walther! lol!!

Hey, flying penguins! How cute. And those are some very lush plants. When it is so cold and snowy one does wish for the warm tropics. But I'll pass on the GIANT spiders. Great stuff, Walther. CC

A bird? A plane? No, it's Super-Penguin! ;) Hopefully that spider can't fly as well otherwise the little guys in tuxedos might get into trouble. Ein gesundes und erfolgreiches 2007, Walther.

That spider is the stuff nightmares are made of, lol, and flying penguins are the stuff of dreams. So I guess it fits together. Plants look terrific - great work, Walther.

I just LOVE that spider!! And the combination of Linda's Lush, a great POV and the (a)typical Walther humor ain't too bad either '-)! Just hope these guys have a reservation!!
