I enjoy creating artwork in Poser, Photoshop CC, Vue, and DAZ Studio. I also have a passion for photography, and have been actively shooting for many years. I've been using Poser since Version 8, and am also learning my way around DAZ Studio. I've been using Adobe Photoshop since version 4. I also use Vue 10. I frequently use my photos as backgrounds, and composite my 3D figures into them.
I have been creating my web comic / graphic novel "The Girls From T.N.A." since fall of 2009, and have been a member of Renderosity since August 2009. I've made a lot of wonderful friends here, and have been inspired every time I visit!
I will soon have a more complete biography, as I am updating everything. In the meantime, have a look around my gallery!
Thanks!
Rod

Agree this looks like a photo.Excellent job but don't think I would have the patience for the rendering time it took.

Time is short for many of us, Rod. Just appreciate your time when you do have it. I thought at first this was a photo it's so realistic looking. Amazing work and can't wait to see what you have in store.

Outstanding image.....bout oh, the render time.

I can see why Arquinia loves this area. and I can bet that it is more extensive than it looks. I cannot wait to see the interior shots and scenes.
get well soon.
excellent work

We could probably have a long discussion about your work situation, as I once assembled printers for a major corporation, but I also know you had rather spend any free time to focus on the girls :) This seems to be a well chosen and secluded spot for compiling your tales.

Excellent realism, I mistook it for a photo initially. I've has Vue and Poser renders which have taken more than three days. Such is the price of perfectionism.
synthetik3
you cant rush perfection (maybe just jab it in the ass a few time times for good measure though lol) look forward to all your up coming projects

Wow I thought this was a photo your render is so good. Well worth that long render time to get that fabulous detail. You sound to be so busy these days but we all love to see what great images you come up with. I have been working on making the days longer but that seems to be beyond me.lol. ☺

This is awesome! I thought it was a photo until I read the description. I can't seem to stop long enough to catch my breath these days. Glad your feeling better.

An exceptional render! Very very nice work!

I was going to guess view, but after I got that wonderful scene from Stonemason with plants and water. I not sure what can come out of a render engine these days. Leave the art work for a few years and come back even stupider. Ya did real good . that's why I guessed vue as some of their scenes can come out like a photograph, and I will never know what the new Photoshop can do. After I left I hear they had a 9.99 per month service which I would have gone for, but 49.99 per month is too high for an SS person. Site on Patreon, I have no idea what that is. Sound like a very good tequila....Olay

45.75 hours!@@ Very expensive work:)

Well, Rod. Seems you've out-done yourself again! It will be difficult to beat this one! I at first thought it to be a photo of an entrance to your house! Then you gave it all away! But, considering it's Vue, well, any software would have a hard time beating Vue. I have Vue 6, but time, a lazy brain and tiredness after getting home from work (does that sound familiar somehow?!) has prevented me from learning much. Sigh. Maybe later. Keep up the good work! Am looking forward to more TNA! Or was it TNT? BOOM!? Definitely a rating of 7 here!
And thanks for comments on my "silliness" with Summer! She's trying to find another victim for another instructive image! Just keep LOW! :)

Um....WOW!

WOW... What a fabulous creation/composition my friend... Fantastically well done !!!

45 hours. Ye gods. It was well worth it. No way I could let my laptop burn through that. It might not be any good afterwards.
You have quite the art chops, and I hope I can get something similar, but please don't burn yourself out in the process.
oddment
Yep, looks like a photo alright, but 45+ hours... one more reason why I love lo-poly toons. Lol.

Nice work Rod. Looks like Vue agrees with you nicely. For a render that size and the higher res trees, the render is not too much of a surprise. More RAM and processing will certainly speed things up. And I have plenty of tips to offer to help your renders and slow them down Great work and look forward to more Vue.
