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.

On a side note, I appreciate those who have made me a favorite artist and those who have favorited any of my images. It would be greatly appreciated, however, when making any individual a favorite artist, that you comment now and then on their work. Many here like to 'collect' people for their own statistical purposes and never acknowledge an individual's work with a comment; especially those who have never uploaded an image or render themselves. If you favorite an image of mine, then leave a comment posted to that particular work in the galleries.  If you add me to your favorite artists, then stop by once in a while and leave a comment to my work.

You've created exactly what we think of when we see pictures of nebulas and so on. But adding in a planet like this gives it lots more dimension and depth. Excellent, Keith! I bet you held your breath that the render would match your expectations. Previews in Bryce aren't much cop are they? (And again I'll let you off that lens flare!) Dave

Most of the nebulae I know of are millions of kilometers across, which makes the planet HUGE! Think of the G-forces! Great image.

7 hours, that's some mammoth render time Keith but well worth it judging by the final outcome. A massive sense of scale and marvellous nebulae colouring. Fabulous work. Tony.

Great work, K. Fantastic Bryce scenario. Great composition. Love the light from the collissions... looks amazing through the clouds. 7 hours.. would prolly take my 2002 hardware, and Bryce 6.1... ...a week to do a render like this:)
