Hi, everyone! Thanks for dropping by at Gene's Place.
BIO
I'm a 59-year-old novice artist who only somewhat recently discovered Bryce. I live in USA's Pacific Northest (Spokane, WA). I don't have a life, but I *DO* have Bryce, DAZ Studio and a Renderosity Gallery...;^D
Discovering "consumer" 3D applications at a time when they're rapidly becoming both more powerful and more affordable has been a Godsend for me. My finger/manual dexterity is abysmal, making attempts at "traditional" art laughable. On a shoestring budget I cobbled together a Power Mac G4 system with just enough power to run Bryce 5.5 and DAZ Studio at slightly-faster-than-molasses speed. At the start of June '06 I bought Bryce 5.5 Jumpstart and installed DAZ Studio. I've been experimenting with Bryce extensively on a daily basis since then, and I'm learning a little about DS as I go.
Update May '08: I no longer consider myself a novice at 3D art, but I still have a lot to learn. I can't say I really *understand* the software (a lot of 3D art terminology still goes over my head - LOL!) but I'm comfortable enough with Bryce and DS to feel OK calling myself an artist. I've acquired a few other apps (most notably Carrara and MojoWorld) and promised myself that I'll at least learn the basics of one of them this year. I now work with a much more adequate system, a Digital Audio Power Mac G4 with dual 1.6 GHz CPUs and 1.5 GB RAM. I dream of a Quad Xeon Mac Pro, but what I have now should suffice until I hit the lottery...;^O

Lovely image. The ship almost looks translucent, like a ghost ship:)

I almost passed this by. However, now I've looked at it I must applaud your idea. The boat itself is an excellent creation and the way you've treated it is an inspiration in itself. Bravo, my friend, you've earned your keep with this one!

Very ghost ship feel, and the verse come sail away, come sail away comes to mind
