I'm a 50-something Scotsman living in Glasgow, and I've been into CG art since 2005, and I like to think I'm not that bad at producing stuff that people like. I just hope I'm not deluding myself (^_^) My tastes run from glamour and fantasy, anime and manga, through to retro SF images and fake magazine and book covers.
I used Poser when I first started, but now I use DAZ Studio (latest version) for setting up and posing figures, and Bryce for the final renders. My own props and sets are created in TS4, which is a bit clunky, but it lets me build some interesting stuff. PhotoShop and Gimp are where it all comes together. I use only DAZ people in my artwork, as I find the Poser people a bit lacking in the looks and versatility department. I used to draw a lot, but discovering 3D has allowed me to create the kind of images I could never achieve with 'normal' media.
Thanks for all the positive and helpful comments that I have received. It's nice to get feedback from fellow artists. Makes posting the images seem worthwhile. At one time I was producing a CGI comic for a British comic-magazine called "Spaceship Away" but the editor decided that he would reduce my page count - and I decided that no he wasn't and pulled out all together. Although it lasted a short time it allowed me to experience life as a professional comics artist.
Hopefully it won't be my only time ^_^

I agree, Eagle ruled! [Even though Dan Dare is still my sworn enemy!!] I've been thinking about modelling Anastasia in C4D, maybe one day...

Wonderful render!! I thank you for introducing me to the wonderful world of Eagle and the rich history of sci-fi comics you have in the UK. Take care, my friend :)

Cool image, a bit of trivia..my father was a photoengravia processor and I have a photo of him hand colouring the front cover of the first Eagle comic prior to printing at Eric Bemrose, Aintree Liverpool.

Man.... the thought of a crossover in which Dan Dare and The Doctor met......! (Ever see Warren Ellis' THE MINISTRY OF SPACE? It's a darker type of Dan Dare story, as if John LeCarre wrote for EAGLE.)
