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.

Very nice job. I like the perspective and the fir trees in the background are a fantastic touch.

Thanks for your comment! About the fir-trees (also having recieved comments on the other image, "Dragon, take care"): For those of you who don't know the trick, it's made with a "stacked" terrain. You duplicate the terrain where you want your "firs" to grow. Then you edit this terrain in the terrain-editor. Choose a resolution of 512 or higher. And now, you choose "spikes", and paintmode "paint effect". In this way you can (approximately) paint where you want your "trees" to grow. Lower the duplicate terrain slightly, so only the spikes will show. Then use one of the "foliage" textures, perhaps with some adjustment. That's how I did it.
