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 ^_^

Wonderfully dramatic! Not sure I quite agree about the new series but it certainly looks promising - and next week should be a lot of fun!

Nice image my friend, I can see what you mean about the TARDIS, folk who don't know Dr Who wouldn't realise the scale of it compared to the background, very well done mate, as usual, and as expected Billy

Nice picture but nobody can replace David Tennant

Jon Pertwee and Tom Baker were my Doctors, although I prefer the 60s Doctors (including Peter Cushing). They had a sense of wonder about them, a "Where will we wind up next?" feeling... when the TARDIS was able to go where the Doctor wanted it to go that element was lost. I never liked Ecclestone or Tennant, but I like Matt Smith. He reminds me of Troughton and Pertwee.

Great Space scene!

Like Iain, I too grew up in the Tom and Jon years but I still like Chris and David. Wasn't really a fan of Sylvester or Colin but did enjoy Peter Cushings films. Excellent work Iain with nice explosive effect.
