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 ^_^

I have seen the Martian war tripods portrayed in many different ways. From crude to sophisticated and I can say that I like your design. Great bit of modeling and rendering, Iain.

Ah, someone else who realizes the novel actually takes place sometime during the first couple of years of the 20the Century. I lot of people want to place it during 1897 or '98 at the time of the story's serialization in Pierson's magazine. Anyway, I love seeing different interpretations of the infamous tripods, so I'm automatically drawn to this work. I love the "dusky" sky in this scene. It makes the tripods all the more foreboding. Sincerely, Bill

Great modelling and the sky gives it extra drama! There seems to be an odd cubic shape in the foreground that looks out of place but this does not detract from an excellent image!
