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 useΒ 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.Β I'm also a member of the International Association of Astronomical Artists.Β . 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!

I need to make a good bump map that matches the top pattern, though--that is always the hard part. Chasfh's bump is so nice I wish I could keep it, but it does push around the image on top so I need to adjust. Thank you and you are just as awesome--thanks for all the help! hehe you are going to once again (I hope) be the recipient of these when they are done, if you don't mind being imposed on yet again.

My brother was there some years ago--he looks Middle Eastern and he had a beard and spoke some arabic so they took him to see a lot of sights the regular tourists miss (tea places, tiny museums, bookstores) but also a 30 mile camel ride which he said he was very honored to have taken-- but they had to physically pry him off the camel at the end, to the great amusement of the other riders. And thank you too!
