Feeling the heat 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.

Really nice scene. Excellent lighting and textures! I see some strange "blocky" shadows in the rocks, this happens to me sometimes, and i have not figured out why. Very nice render!

This is moody for sure! I love the character's pose, and the intense lighting at play with darker shadows is really intriguing and dramatic. What I like the most is the photorealism of the scene. People aren't in the habit of wearing anything like this character's outfit and yet this doesn't look like a render at all...it looks like you got a costume designer and actress to collaborate on this piece of work, and well...that's a sign of quality! This is marvelous! The thing is though, the trees look deciduous and there's shade, so I don't think the environment here is too harsh in that respect, but then it could also mean that there are carnivorous, tool-using, gun-toting woodlice with very strong territorial instincts, in which case, the extraction team better get there quickly, and with plenty of lettuce to use as a distraction. One should never have to face marauding, hungry alien woodlice with guns.
