I am a traditional 2D artist that has slowly moved into 3D modelling, 3D & 2D animation/video. Even though I have been doing it for a few years, I am still learning many things since I started out. I create characters based on some of my old 2D sketches, or sometimes from photographs of family and friends, and naturally others from my own imagination and magazines. My Bio picture is based on an old photo and sketch of me from a Halloween party from years ago for example - I removed the photo as I didn't realise how HUGE it was when you click on Bio!!!!
I also create content for my language business and online shops; and I undertake a limited amount of commission work
My interests are in Archaeology because it's old like me. Culture and History because they are important.
And above all, kindness and honesty because there should more of that in the world.
I don't have social media accounts dedicated to my art because my business takes up a lot of time. However, I have been a deviant art member for many years.
I started with Poser a number of years ago but at the moment I'm doing quite a lot using Reallusion software. It's definitely a learning curve!
Thank you for looking and comments and constructive criticism are very much welcomed! I will always do my best to acknowledge comments, because if people take the time to comment, then I think it only right that I take the time to acknowledge that.

Looks fine to me but maybe dialing up a light or 2 may bring a better or maybe worse result but for me the pose and character are great. Excellent work :)

Thank you! I fiddled around with the lighting and gave up lol! :P

Hi, a nice portrait render :) Yeah not only the lights, the skin on the figure ist very importent to get a good render... If light doesn´t work use a hdri, you can take a different background :) And again with light optimization I wasted years until I managed it to some extent. Unfortunately iclone behaves a little differently with the light, despite the iray plugin. If spot lights don't work, use point lights and yes, you really have to try a lot...

Thank you! I'm glad I'm not the only one that struggles or has struggled with iray lighting. Because it's not what you see is what you get. Even if you preview, it never seems to turn out the same. I shall bear in mind about the point lights - thanks for the tip! :)

Regardless, she is a beauty. Do you have the full SkinGen installed? It can make a world of difference. -Stephen.

Thank you! Yes, I agree, SkinGen does make quite a big difference. I did have SkinGen installed but now the software can't find any of it :( Something about the file path is off. I read that this has been a common problem and supposedly there is a fix - I just haven't got around to trying it. In the meantime, I plough on! Thanks for your comment :)
