I'm not sure what all to say about myself, I live in Ann Arbor, Michigan (USA) and work as a graphic designer/computer technician for a print shop. I have a BS in Historic Preservation, but wasn't willing to go on for a Master's Degree, nor was I interested in teaching, so I found another career. I discovered Bryce way back when version 1 came out, but I didn't really get serious about the program, or 3D art in general, until a few years ago. When I'm not in front of the computer, I'm either making costumes or wearing them to a renaissance festival, or building a new rock-sculpture, or possibly wandering with a camera.
When I'm not making something, odds are I'm reading from my far too wide range of interests: Astronomy, Cosmology, Physics, Archeology, Anthropology, History, Current Events, NASA (of course) and anything else that happens to catch my attention. It's really hard to find enough time to do all of the things I want to be doing! What drew me to Renderosity is the many excellent artists who continue to inspire me to push myself as an artist. More recently I've added a selection of stuff to another online gallery location:http://nefariousdro.deviantart.com/Â

cloudy with a chance of Bryce meatball asteroid's? Cool work - funny you should mention Comets and Asteroids as I just finished watching Armageddon!

Nicely done...Bryce can really do most things if you know how to work with it's downfalls...nice workaround to create the asteroid,and another fine space background too!

Cosmic dust bunnies..... That become killer rabbits when they hit the Earth's atmosphere! It still amazes me how you get this level of realism from Bryce! I could never get it to do much more than crash and give me cryptic error messages whenever I tried anything more than working with simple shapes and/or Booleans.. Maybe I'll eventually figure out how to do this in Vue... Anyway, awesome work, Mike! Your space renders are always outstanding!

For a Bryce work, it's really good! ;)

I love this. It looks like Idas, only it's not Idas, because I don't see Dactyl, its moon. I love your textures and the quality of light is stunning. This is rather brilliant and I can definitely see this as a backdrop to something marvelous. The textures are what draw my attention the most. I love the regolithic texture. You're definitely a master of this form.

Very nice work. One of these days, an asteroid will be sitting on our laps... Close calls so far :) Aloha

Great shape and texture too. If you use some negative metaballs in there, you can even fake a crater...
