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

Ouch! Makes me feel crowded and cramped. Cool illustration, Rod. Happy you made it through the op well my friend and hope for a speedy recovery. You just grossed out Tena though, but she'll get over it. Take care my friend and thanks for sharing.
RodS
LOL - I'll have a little something soon for Tena that will make her feel better
Diemamker
So with this new add on... are you now a cyborg?... just kidding! I hope you recover well from this, and now the girls will be passing by to check on their patient!
RodS
Resistance is futile........
Napalmarsenal
Glad it was a success !!
I think they used the M meshes in you so don't worry about the boobage, but ....... if you are happening to want to see what you might look like with boobs I'm sure the doc can hook you up with the V model meshes. ........ I just need to find that dial for a smaller .......... A$$ =)
Healing thoughts and well wishes to you and hopes of a speedy recovery!!
RodS
LOL If you're referring to the Cyberdoc (Rene), yeah, he'd be the one to put boobs on me!
radioham
My but you will look funny an grown man with may be one may be two or just lets have an good talk may be more of the BOOBIES I offer to play with them for you

Beautiful Fractal!
MagikUnicorn
love it

Fortunately I'm still at work so...

Oh! Cool! Does that mesh at least have a subdivision option? If yes, then you don't need to worry, because we can morph away your eventual growing boobs with simple magnets and deformers, and without visible ugly bumps in the mesh 😆
Take care
RodS
Don't think this one came with subdivisions..... LOL
makennedy
Too bad it didn't come with dials, think of the six pack you coulda had
RodS
Along with other improvements to various parts......

down right scary stuff. sure glad you have an upbeat attitude about it.
GrandmaT
This is SOOO COOL! I love it! Glad you came through with minimal discomfort and your sense of humor intact. Now get lots of rest and don't lift anything or do jumping jacks or rearrange the furniture for a few days anyway. Seriously, good to know you are okay.
vitachick
When I first saw it was thinking to myself..What is this????Was wondering if there was a hidden message in the mesh..Doh. Then lo and behold I read your description....
Wishing you a quick recovery.....

Are you sure that this isn't a revisit to Tholian Web - cause it sure looks like it! Cool photo and description! Glad you up to talking last night! Great to hear your and Jo's voice. Queen Zlata has instructed Kinnie to make sure you don't do anything that would undo the work the doctors have done.
RodS
I await her arrival with great anticipation!

For you to be able to be this active some 24 hours after surgery, it has to be the stuff that Jedis are made from. The mesh procedure is pretty nifty.
Glad it went perfect, Rod. Kasha's on her way.
RodS
I did study under Yoda for a while..... I'd rather study under Rey, though.... She's pretty hot!
donnena
Good news, Rod!! It's a quad mesh, so it's Poser approved! None of these unruly, unsupported (the last thing you need in a hernia op), untrustworthy Ngons!!!
SO glad everything went well!
Freethinker56
Well Ive never seen anything like this before Rod. So glad all is well. Now just let them nice nurses look after you for a speedy recovery. They were going to do the mesh with hubby but jew to compaction they didn't,your fine his fine all is good my friend. Take care Cheers with a smile

"Rod? Rod is gone. All that's left is mostly machine." "True, this is."
Glad you are well and that's pretty cool you got this photo. My brother has been "meshed" too and he's been fine, but it took a few days to get around much and a couple months to get back to work. Try to enjoy some time off. I expect much more T.N.A.

Well, at least I didn't get my arms and legs cut off and set on fire.... But I do want my lightsaber back....

... reminds me of a Marlon Brando line (to Slim Pickens) "Git up, you big tub of guts" (One-Eyed Jacks (1961))
I would dearly love to see (understand) your pics, and may one day share stories of my colon cancer experience :)
Be well, my friend
rajib
Glad to see you are doing better Rod =). Specially this soon after the surgery =). Take care, rest and relax. That is needed. Well Step 1 to becoming a Terminator (I love that movie series =) ) has began ;)... No thanks on the photos ;), I have seen a few of those too. One of my friend had a knee surgery and it was hard to look at the knee cut open. Stomach churning photos. But nowadays it seems to be a new trend of the surgeons taking photos during a surgery and passing them to the patient. Miho sends her best. She was worried when she heard about the surgery.
RodS
I've seen photos of knee surgery - I'd much rather look at something inside - knee surgery is just brutal to look at! Ugh.
Tell Miho I'm doing fine, and give her a hug for me - once she's done taking down that nasty lab!
auntietk
Yup ... the Tholian Web. That's what I saw, too! :P Glad you're feeling okay, and that you're healing and doing well. I got a note from Jo, and we've been sending you warm fuzzy healing modules. :) Love ya!
RodS
Well, I'm certainly glad they didn't trap the Enterprise in there.... That would have been awkward!
giulband
Wonderful !!!! Life imitate art or art imitate life ??????

Amazing !!!

Thanks Rod for the expose (should be a little mark over the e). Maybe you can get your doctor to sign up for Renderosity...LOL. Glad to hear you are on the mend. Was this a belly button hernia? I had one repaired back in 2008...the mesh continues to hold everything together nicely. My doctor was most proud of reconstructing me a belly button:)

I'm eating pizza. Summer's eating lasagna. T.Rex is eating chicken with tatters. And who else is there? Kitty's eating pork pieces off my pizza. Nobody's the least upset. I've taken a closer look and can identify a few of the structures. This kind of surgery sure has advanced well over the years. Perhaps I should consider it, too. Thanks a lot for the info! Perhaps I can post some interesting anatomical photos so you can see things more clearly! Keep up the good work. I'm glad to see you can get around a bit and do a lot of typing and 3D work! :-)

forgive me for being late, I was gone for a few days, but I saw this the minute you posted it: This is a riot, Rod! I can't believe you're doing standup comedy so quickly after your operation! And---at least from Tara's upload---you're back to work already? Are you s___ing me??? That soon? With that catcher's backstop you posted above, I figured a longer time! (Do you feel anything---I mean, I'm sure you don't, but man, that's a major link-fence there!) I love what you wrote, and the "nudity not checked," etc: Glad you got your humor back so fast! And you had lights out for a night too?
Well, Sir R, I'm thrilled that this was over so fast, that you got back on your feet so fast, and you went back to work so fast. I wish you total recovery, and may it never return; and may whatever you have left (a possible, in the future?): May it go just like this! And, as for the image, I've seen plenty of gross shots of medical procedures (remind me to post my ex-gall bladder): I was fine with this. But man, this is a freakin' backstop! I've never seen anything like it before. I wish you great health, Rod, and it had to be heartening to see all the love that you got here. (I'm coming back later just to read the newer comments---you have a fiercely loyal following here!) All the best! I love this upload. And I hope it's the last time ever!
jayfar
You must feel all meshed up Rod !! Looking forward to the next instalment !
Leilana
Ive never seen anything like this before ... Very good :)
velleman
Wonderful. Am glad you are out and about :-).
Madbat
Whelp, it looks like you have a fairly good poly-count there Rod! Is it UV mapped? Optimised? :P
RodS
Nope - haven't UV mapped this one...... yet. Jeeze..... I'm having enough trouble trying to re-texture the Vanguard!
