BIO
My name is Todd Shearer and I live in the US, on the east coast, near Washington D.C., but don't hold that against me, it's not my fault...really. I live with my significant other and two beagles, Hephaestus (aka Heph) and Nyarlethotep (aka Nya). and the ghost of Yogsothoth (aka Yogdog) And yes, feel free to make the Indianna Jones joke about my being named after the dog. I am presently one of the great unemployed masses, trying to make my way into being able to almost support myself with my art and writing. I try not to be a one trick pony, doing a landscape here, a portrait there, a pin-up over next to the wall...yeah, there in the corner...or whatever else comes to mind. I read and write mostly horror, though I make a point of forcing myself to read at least one classic "should be read" book every four or five cheesey horror or fantasy novels I read. Presently I am working on Dante's Divine Comedy and coming to regret the choice. My favorite artists are Vermeer, Brughel, Barry Windsor-Smith, Bernie Wrightson and Thom Canty... talk about ecclectic. My favorite writers are Stephen King (there's a surprise), H.P. Lovecraft, James Michener and Douglas Adams. Anything else you wish to know? Feel free to ask and I will do my best to answer. Yerz, Yogdog

Wow, this is wonderful. Very detailed and beautiful. With your expertise with all these programs I wonder why you didn't add any blur to the sword in the foreground? But that isn't important, you have created a true masterpiece.

Well, I must say that this was well worth the time and effort you put into it. Very impressive work. Excellent result.

I agree with all of the above!!! I just hope that rogue is backed up with a Bull's Strength and a Cat's Grace spell and maybe some protection magic too! You, perhaps, could use a Cure Insanity potion. I want to see more of this band of adventurers.

It was worth the 'severe drain on sanity'. This is a fantastic image.

Thankyou for the feedback. Just a note in retrospect...and I feel like a twit for not thinking of it while doing the piece...I actually had a pair of incect pincers (mandibles...whatever) in my poser files and didn't use them as the basis for the umberhulks mandibles....DOH!
