I'm a painter, turned illustrator, turned designer from Seattle that now makes a living as a senior creative director in middle of the desert in Phoenix, Arizona. Life is strange to say the least. A few years ago I returned to painting, through traded my Winsor brushes and Golden Acrylics for Poser, Vue, and Photoshop, and have since resumed doing commercial illustration for a select clientele. I mainly work in 3D, but almost everything I do is overpainted until my wrist hurts as I just can't roll with squeaky clean stuff - it's not in my nature.
Recently my work has appeared in Ballistic Publishing's EXPOSÉ, was added to Steve Wozniak's personal art collection, been featured at MacWorld San Francisco and can soon be seen on limited edition tee's at Barney's New York and Fred Segal Los Angeles.
I'm married with three cats and can't seem to have less than ten Mac's in the house at any given time... you never know, I may need that bondi blue iMac for something one day ;)

So that's where the empire came from. Wasn't the trade federation, as is commonly accepted. It was halliburton oil! Arab money in the pockets of the sith! No wonder they can afford to build things like the death star :P heh. Just saying . . . heh. I like this imade dude. I like the pov. A larger render would be nice, cause its worth it. Great work!

Very nice use of the Comm tower. Funny sign. I like the trees on the mesa. Excellent shot. Good luck tying up those loose ends. I know how they can pile up.

Wow!

Awesome pic! I like the way you mixed urban future structures and nature. Using the trees as some kind of framing is a very neat idea. Very funny sign, too. Two thumbs up!

Love the irony of the warning sign. Great contrast between the clean tech lines of the building and its environment.

This is simply stunning! I'm really glad you went back to it, because it's a great shot. I really love the lighting on this, and the point of view - oh, and the sign really adds that special touch. ;)

VERY impressive stuff! One of the better shots of a city in the galleries! I love how it looks like the Appleseed Primary control facility from the Appleseed Mange and CGI! Wonderful work! Woooooohooooo!

Excellent image :)

Fabulous scifi city, and a totally believable scene. Great vantage point for the scout. Nice work indeed!!

Great scene (must be viewed in full size). Very good composition. If I have to trust your picture, maybe good to buy some shares from Halliburton as it will be still active in many decades :-)

I love this sign, I bet Darth Cheney is in there right now with Emperor Bush thinking about how else to fuck the environment:D A nicely composed scene otherwise.
jif3d

Excellent JCD. I'm a big fan of pushing the veg in around the camera - it provides an interesting natural frame. Love the sign as well!

Would love a little more light on the sign, but that could just be my monitor, apart from that wonderfully framed. Turan
