Stupidly in 1988 I decided that using an amiga and an atari st for more than games would be fun. Hey I enjoyed art at school and decided using a computer for art just had to be better than getting messy with pencil and paints.

Neo Paint and Deluxe Paint followed and I made a few covers disks with artwork. All made in the technical brilliance of 256 colours!

Then I made film trailers for a living, earnign enough to buy a gobsmacking 486 66 with 16 megs of ram and a video card that could do True Colour at 640x480 and a very expensive unkown package called 3d cyber studio which had just been used to make the graphics on a game called 7th guest (And I remember the crowds of people starring in wonder at the graphics in 7th guest!).

Then in the early ninties I started making lots of stra trek and star wars 3d artwork and uploading it to the forums on Compuserve and AOl, I meet some partners in crime called Mateen Greenway and Eric Peterson who also used 3d studio and we started to swap mesh and ideas. Over the next few years we made a website stunning called wolfpak359 (the c is missing in wolfpak as AOL did not allow enough characters!) And other names joined in, My personal hero and the guy who made m,e want to do 3d more than anyone, Martin Cameron (3d artwork on the box of Tie Fighter and Xwing) and then many many more.

Now over a decade the wolfpak is a collection of most of the major 3d sf artists on the web ranging from hobby artists to the poeple who make the graphics for the film and tv shows.

I have drifted from the games industry in the late ninties into e-commerce and work on 3d and Ai on the web.

And the wolfpak's websites have had millions of visitors and its almost impossible to find a Star Trek website that doesn't feature artwork from one of the wolfpak.

We decided long ago to give away the artwork for free download and that you could use it on your website as long as you gave us a link and did not profit from it. A tatic that melted several servers over the years.

You have to imagine that some of the wolfpak have worked in 3d most of their adult lives. the eldest being close to 60 the youngest being just over 20. And the "pak" are located across the globe.

The pak is just a mailing list were people talk. Its also a grapevine and place to bitch about the world.

My hobby artwork is now in two main areas Landscapes and people, the 2 last bastions of 3d design, much of the stuff you see here on renerosity was almost impossible several years ago. Some of the pak have the privalage of working (or creating!) the latest 3d software and hardware. Folks you never believe what the 3d revolution has just around the corner.

I like this site (renerosity" alot it make me smile to see so many people who make fantastic 3d artwork for just plain fun. Much of the work here is non commercial.

I wish everyone happy dreams in 3d land!
