My baby...luv my Jeep 4x4. Do I take it rock-crawling and off-roading? Hell no... No way, no how...... ÂÂ
I have been working with 3D digital programs for about 6 years time. My first experiences with the world of 3D digital art were Terragen and a terrain generator program called World Machine. After learning Terragen, I moved on to Bryce where my major interest in creating landscapes, SciFi and interior space renderings now lies.
Other programs which I experiment with and use are Vue7, Apophysis and Incendia. Postwork tools I usually use for enhancing the original renders are PSP Pro X, PhotoScape 3.3, Paint.Net, MGI PhotoSuite and FastStone Image Maker. Occassionally I also enjoy taking photos with my Nikon S52 Digital camera. Here at Renderosity you will find works of mine using all of these mediums.
As an artisan, I have always had a deep love and respect for architecture, especially modern and future design development. You will see that reflected in some of the 3D renderings here in my gallery.
Originally, I'm a Northeastern United States native (anthracite coal region)....half Welsh, half Bavarian in ancestry.... and live some 1,400 feet (about 475 metres) above sea level in the Appalachian mountain chain along with my Shih-Tzu, Max and my cat, London. However, I prefer the lure of the beach and ocean and especially love the Chesapeake Bay region of the East Coast. ÂÂ
Take a few minutes to look thru my gallery and leave a comment or two if you like. Everyone here at Renderosity is unique in their work and individual abilities.  Personally speaking, I have been blessed with the friends I have made from around the world and for being a part of this community for the past 5 years.

Again, your use of the camera and spotlights is outstanding. The sky is superb and the mood of the lighthouse keeper, solitary and serene. Excellent work, Keith!
Heathcroft
Great idea and excellent work on a favourite subject. But with a curious twist. Hmmm... I wonder what the lighthouse keeper looks like: where is he/she/it?

That's an excellent creation! I could almost imagine I was hearing the fog horn!

Great work, Keith... shine on! I like the idea of it being held together with steel... still doing it's job.

This is an intriguing image! I love the light/shadow contrasts as well as the colors that you employ here. Great work, with a great mood as well...for all of the rust and make-do elements (Iron straps, rusted tin roofs, and such) the image has a wonderful, restful mood that also borders on brooding anticipation and even loneliness. Great job on all levels of this.

Nice looking house well done image kudos..
grafikeer
Well done Keith...only thing I would add is a smaller cylinder rendered in same railing texture to follow the perimeter of the top of your lighthouse to form a railing around it,but a great modelling job nonetheless...5+

This is very good for your first modelling attempt Keith, it's sometimes not as easy as it looks so well done on being brave and trying it. This is a great scene and the dying foliage also adds to the broken down look of the scene. Great work. I agree with Mariane, we'll be expecting more from you now. Tony :-)
