BIO
My real name is Lars, and I live in Denmark. All my life I've been drawing and making pictures, occationally as a "professional" but always with an amateur ("for the love of it") approach.Being a proficient airbrush artist, the jump to computer graphics (Photoshop, Painter) wasn't all that hard for me, it was just a question of understanding how to employ the techniques to this new medium.
In july -02 I dug into the world of 3D rendering for the first time, in Bryce 5. A truly fascinating experience! My computer has been rendering ever since ;o)At the beginning I thought I'd be making lots of sci-fi stuff, but something happened right back from the early Bryce days: I started to look at trees and nature, the sky etc. in a new manner, or more intensely at least. I've always been a big fan of beautiful landscapes, and instead of sci-fi, I began a "quest" for 3D landscaping and beliveable environments.
Over the years, the 3D rendering has more or less taken over my creative endeavours. Vue became my application of choice from the start of 2003, with Poser, XFrog and Onyxtree as auxilliary programs. Plus a whole arsenal of new and ancient freeware, to be mentioned are Bantam3D Grass and Plantstudio.

Excellent!

But now it is perfect. The path is not ambiguous anymore and the slightly bluish tone enhance everything. What is the dimensions? It really would be a shame if this was not born as a large ciglee print or even better acrylic on ink.

nice detail!

How cold did it get? It looks like Europe is getting hit hard. Excellent image - this one is better than the previous one - great that you added the birds adds that little bit more ... Excellent colour and lighting - superb
jmherve
Quite perfect !
gillbrooks
That's perfect! The light is just right for the chill factor. Looks pretty much like that over most of UK at the moment too. Coldest temp last night was in the Scottish Highlands - around -21C, here it was about -7

If that's what it looks like there it really is beautiful in Denmark! You've really captured the wintery feel. Fabulous lighting on the little bird!!

Fabulous winter scene! Wonderful work!!

Fantastic work. This one is the best, though that's splitting hairs :) Awesome work.
Orinoor
This is really perfect, I love the snow over everything, it helps bring out the little details.

i like this one much better, even though the other was incredibly good. the scenery is at the same excellent level, but the i find the light much more striking and interesting. that said, i'm not a good judge of winter scenes. i haven't seen snow in years. i was terribly cold last night because it got down to freezing (which it's not supposed to do again for ages). and it's about 30 or so degrees Fahrenheit warmer in the day. i miss icy scenes like this.
ShawnDriscoll
They are both very good snow scenes.

I think this one is better, Really inspiring.
dcclxxvii
Wonderful. I very much like the bird on the ground and all the details... I think I like this version a bit more than the other one.
Domi48

Brian S.
WOW! I love the realism you can squeeze out of vue, this is really excellent!

Love the lighting and snow mat. Are the snow mats just a layer of snow material enviro blended to make them appear on top? I've used that technique but not on leaf material yet. It would be neat if there was a way to make the snow sit on top of needles, such as using metablobs as an eco mat. However metablobs don't render when used as an ecosystem. Pity.

A wonderful winter scene with super lighting.
