...'Full-on' multimedia artist, born in Kenya, East Africa, graduated in Fine Art & moved on.....
My website:
http://rossenrode-art.co.uk/BIOPainted from an early age in East Africa..... (& moved about a lot)... Graduated in Fine Art in South Africa.......Relocated to the UK, and continued studying Graphic Design, photography, music.... Freelanced as an Illustrator all over the place... and lectured in painting and figure drawing, in the UK... Started my 'computer art' on an Amiga 500, (surely before many of you were born).... Returned to Africa ... (and started to get 'serious' with CG).....My early days of 3D were on the Amiga - with Cinema (yes, it was around back then); Imagine; Caligari; Real 3D... and anything else I got my hands on...... For some years I continued to freelance in illustration / design / animation / video graphics, to numerous ad agencies & production houses....Only managed the occasional 'playtime' with 3D Illustration, (with programs like Infini-D; Strata & Lightwave...) while trying to maintain my fine art , although somehow that had 'moved into' wildlife art.... - Then about 4 years ago, set up a multimedia partnership, with Maya as our 'flagship'...... But thru a series of 'events', I left the partnership & Africa, and found my way back to England..... where I am slowly 'rebuilding'.....(Without the means to repurchase Maya, I 'switched' to Cinema4D as my 3D program of choice, ('reunited' again after so many years & enjoying it!!)....

I like the hands! great model! That material on the pot-handle looks sooo good... Is it an SLA Anistrophic? What's the water-plug?
Delrino
wow..fantastic one! the handle is really freat, but the pot could use some more bump in my opinion. the hands are real cool. i'm curious about the watershader..where did you download it?

Hi and thanks for the feedback........ Re: pingo - your question...."Is it an SLA Anistrophic?.....(pssst, what is that, he asks politely?). I'm from 'darkest Africa', and must have missed that one in my travels.... Seriously though, the material on the handles, and bowl in background, was part 'BhodiNut' with anistrophy added.... and the 'porcelain-type' area with the motif, I made up in Bodypaint...... Delrino, thanks for your comment.... I messed about with the bump and decided that it was fighting & somewhat dominating the water and focal point of the shark...... In fact I even feel the noise on the brass may be too much. As for the water shader, herewith the link.... It is part of the Maxon site..... Some great ones there.... http://www.maxon.net/deepshade/
