I am a self-taught artist working both in the 2D realm of traditional painting(watercolours,acrylics and ink) and the 3D realm of digital painting and CGI(mainly Bryce and Photoshop).My work is primarily SciFi,Fantasy and Landscape,as well as logo design and conceptual art.  I have always been interested in all things SciFi,as a kid growing up in Rushden,Northamptonshire,England I was a huge fan of such shows as The Thunderbirds,Captain Scarlet,Dr.Who and many more.Upon emigrating to Alberta,Canada I was captivated by the beauty of the Rockies and the diversity of wildlife and spent years studying animals and painting realistic wildlife scenes in watercolour.My originals hang in collections worldwide.Now,my attention has switched back to SciFi,and my knowledge of creature anatomy and habits,as well as colour sense and compositional skills now come into play in a whole new realm...3D.  During the day I work in a gallery and frameshop in Kelowna,BC,Canada where I have lived for almost thirty years.As the shop manager and master framer,I am constantly influenced by the art that is both shown in the gallery and framed for clients.  As a member of Renderosity for just over a year,I have come to know many of the artists here,and have been inspired by their works.I have also been fortunate to have works chosen for display on other sites,and to have been featured in articles in two digital magazines,all as a result of the exposure from this site.My goal is to continue,and push my knowledge with each image.Thank you for taking the time to view my gallery!

Hmm. Nice terrain (if a little greenish for mars). Really like the sky. I have Vue 7 now, but other things keep getting in the way of me learning it.

Great sky! Yes, the ground seems a bit greenish for Mars, like geirla said, but it still looks good and it's a good contrast with the sky. Welcome to Vue! :-)

Superb sky and terrain work, Neil. You're going to love the vegetation and atmospherics in Vue - (dare I say it?) Bryce on very strong steroids! I look forward to seeing what Vue does in your hands...!

Excellent work!!!!

Very nice first scene with Vue. Great sky and lighting. You would really like the ecosystem function, but i think you need Pro studio version for that. Very well done.

Advancing into new territory are we? Glad too see it. I will look forward to seeing what you come up with. PS- the image I was working on was taking too long and didn't look like anything special so I stopped. However, I think I will try to create an abstract image RIGHT NOW! and post it for you :P

Cool render of our nearest planetary neighbor. Green Mars? Maybe someday after it is terraformed. Great atmosphere.

Awesome 3D effect with that sky.

Do you see the skull in those mustard hills? Chaos in the skies...
