Well for those who like to know more about me this is it. My real name is Ed van Dalen. I live in the Netherlands, in Rotterdam to be precise. I was born in 1962 in that same city. This site (Renderosity) is a great place to be and I enjoy being here very much. A little explanation for the picture. Someone at the site gave me the idea for this logo when he linked my name with the name of the rockband Van Halen.  There is a resemblance with their logo but I gave it my personal twist with the mouse in the rings to make the connection to computer art.
BIO
As I told in the intro I'm dutch. I work as a service mechanic for 21 years now and since recently as a freelance digital artist. I am not a die hard computer artist because I started only about a year ago with this kind of art. I have been painting pin-ups for a lot of years until I visited a bookmarket where I found a book about 3d digital rendered figures. From then on I was hooked. It took until May this year (2005) before I had the nerve to post my first image. I'm glad I did though cause since then I got to know a lot of wonderful people who gave me the confidence to carry on with my art. This site has made my world so much bigger and I thank everyone who comes and visit it.

As a die hard pumpkin lover my first impulse is to cry, 'oh, the humanity!' Those poor little things! I love the handprints on and next to the wall sign and that dancing skeleton is adorable! Really great job on the whole scene and especially the lighting on the pumpkins.

I didn't catch the dancing skeleton right away - I like it.... the ankle monitor is a nice touch too. TAG is really easy to play, you just have to wait for that moment when TAGGED... it could be in a day or two or months - some people take a while before they TAG. It's just something I made a few years ago and a handful of favorite artists and friends that I never would of known have come from the game - it's just an interaction thing with other artists.... Right now, RodS has the TAG, if you don't know RodS, then you'll lose track of the TAG - I update it from time to time in my gallery, but Rod has the TAG and he's one of the artists I wouldn't have known if it wasn't for TAG. Did you fire your maid yet? lol... you aught to make her clean up the mess first - and don't pull an Arnold on her - lol

Cool scene..well done!!

Well I'll have to say she looks like she's really getting into carving up those pumpkins.... The little details here really add to this artwork - like the pumpkin juice flowing into the cracks between the tiles. Superb work, Ed! Now, let's see how creative you are at firing her.... LOL!

She doesn't seem to be too flash at pumpkin carving...at least the other plant survived ! As for getting rid of her, tell her the basement needs cleaning, then lock the door and throw away the key ! Kool details and sick bitch !...LOL Well done & ~Cheers~

Looks like you might end up with the pumpkins if you don't approach this one carefully..... rubber bullets and tasers at 40 paces sounds about right. LOL.

Great image here Ed, one of your best. Still it seems you might want to re-think your choice of maids ;)
tennesseecowgirl

renecyberdoc
