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 ^_^

Cool figure, very detailed.I'll bet their Tardidis isn't as good as yours.The monochrome works well, though I would love to see this bigger.

Those figures from CharActer Options are near museum quality in their detail and accuracy, aren't they? I think I have nearly everything from the "classic" series in that line. I'll continue to collect them if I can, but if conditions forced me to stop, at least I'm relatively content. I finally gained at least one version of each Doctor when CO released the "Eleven Doctor" collector set since it contained Paul McGann's likeness from the 1996 movie. Sincerely, Bill

The finishing quality isn't so good and the accuracy of late has become a big discussion point which isn't suited an art community ^_^ Needless to say that I tend to improve where I can. Unlike some collectors I only buy the figures I like - no NuWho unless to repaint, and only the classics which move me (Daleks, Cybermen, early Doctors, TARDISes...) I'm not a completist. Anyway, back to the point and thanks everyone for the kind comments. Very much appreciated.
