Etiquette (for Savage_Dragon) by faroutsider

My corporeal form lives with my wonderful wife and six eccentric cats in beautiful Sedgefield, but my dreaming body is frequently elsewhere, exploring the fractal universe and marveling at nature's chaos. I love traveling to places that exist only as mathematical constructs on my computer and bringing back snapshots that sometimes remind me of the real world (whatever that means), sometimes of metamagical worlds we can visit only in our imaginations. I trained as a biologist and run a small company specialising in science publishing - writing, editing, illustrating and typesetting. For 3D world building I use Vue, Daz Studio and Poser, but I've also used Bryce since version 2 and done some work with Terragen, Carrara and Groboto. For technical illustration I use mainly Illustrator and Photoshop.
Thanks for visiting my little corner of Renderosity, and to everyone who has kindly commented on my images or added my works as a favourite, thank you for that too. Craig.

Roflmao! Its a curse. A 'female' thing. I must have shoes, even if I don't like wearing them. Then again, at least they're not cats... Lol! Thanks, Craig. Glad you finally got some sleep. (snort) ;)

I don't have the shoe thing myself, but I understand the need to look "fierce" when setting out on some major undertaking. What's more fierce than a kickin' pair of heels. I love this piece!

you know Craig, I don't know a thing about 3D rendering, I just know it takes forever and involves much compiling & constructing in addition to art. I had a hard time with Adobe Illustrator, so I can imagine what pieces like these are like...This is a wholly organic & modulated work, and feels like one of yours because it's got a sly & fine sense of humor, your dragon is struggling but she's subtle, a good comic actress (not too broad, not going for the 'big laughs' but--how do you say it--staying in character, lol). And it's got your consummate sense of atmosphere & completeness as well. She seems really well done, I love how her wings dominate the upper portion, they loom over her. And she's all crouched and frustrated (and you lit up the land right under her for emphasis). But your background is big & sweeping, with that big beautifully lit sky. I've seen things like that in your other work, and it's good painting--ie, very fine modulations, melding of blues & grays, etc. Over all, it's a big sweeping piece for something tongue-in-cheek, and the tongue-in-cheek works without a hitch. It's a pleasure to be back here again! Hope your summer is going well & you had a fine holiday season. And hope your 2010 will be splendid for you & those you love. (Hey, it's minus 15C here half the days...there's no excuse for this weather. Frankly I'm writing a letter...)
