BIO I'm an illustrator, and for the last 15 years I have been doing almost exclusively digital work--mostly covers for e-books and small presses; fantasy, SF and Paranormal Romance covers are my specialty. I use Poser, Photoshop and Painter, and a nifty little paint program called ArtRage. I have been lucky enough to have work shown on the BBC's The Sky at Night, done promotional artwork for the Hugos, and have digital art tutorials published in Michael Burn's Femme Digitale and Digital SciFi Art (Watson-Guptill 2004) as well as DVD covers, cd covers and e-book covers, most recently for Liquid Silver Books, Edge/Tesseract and Dragon Moon Press. I'm also a member of the International Association of Astronomical Artists. . When I have time, I do acrylic paintings for fun.
Commissions: I do 3d texturing and backgrounds now rather than book covers, and I do appreciate a good UV template to work on. Thanks for checking out my bio!

and she looks great, but one could call her profession a dead end job, filled with grave possibilities for the unwary
lwperkins
aagh that is so terrible! I always thought that Necromancers had to be careful not to kill anyone or that would just be professionally awkward :D Thank you too!
gypsyangel
Beautifully done...you're really having a blast with Studionow, huh? This is really gorgeous...
lwperkins
For some reason the lights in Iray do pretty much what I expect, which is a novelty :D Also this was a six minute render, though I did some postwork on it. I'm still not good with plugging in materials, but anything premade is a party :D Thank you too!

She's to die for..... er,oops!!

OI, that looks good! And I think ol' Faemike hit every pun in the book lol.
I tried calling up the dead once, but all I got was the answering machine. Figures.
Never trust a skeleton, they're always grinning about something.
Vampires suck.
OK, ok, I'm leavin'!
lwperkins
No, you are here all week! (If I had known what a fun crop of jokes I would get out of it, I would have posted her sooner) :D

Pov and lighting rock, Lynn. Ultra beauty of a model. Her expression does worry me a bit. Wonder what she's thinking about.

very captivating damsel and superb choice of clothing
lwperkins
Thank you! I wish I had more G3 clothing that was sort of over-the-top fantasy! I did discover some of the G2 stuff can be wriggled on if I am careful though :D
