I dont think of myself as an artist - more a creatively minded laymen. Im blessed with perpetual inspiration, but cursed by a lack of talent.
I have always loved to sketch, and on the odd occasion even paint. Unfortunately for me, a real world canvas doesnt have an undo button. This is why, back in 1996, I first started toying with a Shareware version of Paint Shop Pro (found on the cover of a magazine). I knew almost instantly that digital art was for me.
Fast forward to 2006, when I discovered a highly under-rated (yet unfortunately limited) program called FaceGen. Within hours of tinkering with the software I was creating realistic characters well beyond anything I could have managed via traditional mediums. But what to do about bodies for my newly created digital brethren?
I took it upon myself to scour the internet in search of a 3D software package that was flexible enough to fulfil my specific needs, while still being NOOB friendly. Untimely I didnt want to spend months, or even years deciphering the ins and outs of 3D Studio Max for instance.
It wasnt long before I caught digital whisperings of a program called Poser, which lead me eFrontiers very own site.
In search of more examples of Poser art I found myself inevitably at Renderosity...and I havent looked back since.
The community here is certainly a mixed bunch (as are all communities, online especially), but in the great majority they have proven to be incredibly helpful, and wonderfully supportive.
If you plan on commenting on my images (and I certainely hope you do) while praise is always appreciated, critical analysis and constructive criticism is encouraged.
Happy rendering!

Interesting style of composition and technique!

Beautiful piece. But I'm not sure about the shadow direction considering the light source. You may check out my new works.

My light sources are always all over the place and technically inaccurate. It pains my brother (be most vocal and useful critic) to look at some of my images :). It also annoys the hell out of him that correct light sourcing doesn't bother me! :)

gah! i didn't even think about it, but now that i notice it, it bugs me, too. i can see why you're so gleeful about it, because it's irking me in a stupid way. i really want to move the shadow. i can tell this is one of your early efforts (your strokes look more certain now), but i can also see the stylistic connection to your other works. especially in how you shade the suit.

I like the fact that the background has different shades of blue on either side of the shadow.
