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 ^_^

Sigh..... I want a magazine subscription service that would let us subscribe to magazines from alternate timelines..... A wonderful series, both for the imagery and the implied storytelling. And which offering from the prolific Arthur J Crudworthy is SSD giving away? It's been a while since I've seen it, but DUO's Lander reminds me of the ship seen at the beginning of FIRST MEN IN THE MOON. Oh man, Quatermass discovering Cavor had beaten him by 60 years .... that would be a fit to avoid!

I'm enjoying this series of Space Science Digest covers :) That typo is why this cover is such a collectors item and has fetched record prices on eBay!!! Well done my friend!!!

Brilliant stuff and not at all boring. How about showing us the cover of the latest Crudworthy novel? If its anything like "The Brain From planet 9" then it should be well worth seeing. :)

Why worry about boring people? Shouldn't this be all about expressing yourself FOR yourself? The heck with the rest. Oh, and by the way, terrific image! Love the looming gas giant in the background. Adds that extra sense of drama to the scene. Great work!
