This page contains samples of some of my best artwork and various 3D models to date. Feel free to comment on anything you see here. BIO I have been an artist all my life from sculpting to painting to building ships in bottles I have had a hand in nearly everything. Several years ago I was given a glimpse at what a computer could do when an artist was at the helm. I quickly learned that the way to express myself and bring my visions to life was 3D art. I have a background in printing, graphics communication and advertising design. I became lead modeler at Faultline Studios and worked on illustrations for the card game "Crown of the Emperor". I have worked on several book covers and enjoy bringing ideas to life.
I am now lead graphics artist for RonEd Media and have continued to increase my abilities and portfolio. My goal has been to do illustrations for a sci-fi book, magazine or non-fiction titles on the paranormal. I enjoy creating various images usually sci-fi in nature that center on the darkside or human thought and technology. The many "what ifs" that fill our minds at dark hours and the need to believe in other things that give us hope in dark times. I have learned to use many programs and will likely learn many more to help in telling my stories better. The latest addition to my pallet is Vue 8 Complete and the results are amazing, expect more. I would like to thank Sci-fi channel and Sci-fi weekly for allowing me to share some of my visions with the world " My latest contribution to the 3-D world is the Cydonia model and material sets, a joint project between me and Gill Brooks. You can also find my "Shattered Worlds" sets and materials for Vue and Poser in the market place.

I like this image quite a bit. The POV is very good, and the color's / texturing and lighting are great. :) If your looking for suggestions, possibly a small amount of motion blur off the back wing plane and jets to give it a "decending very fast" feel, and possibly a small bit more color in the planet continents, the lack of, makes them look low res. :)

I like it way better then the first time I saw it. There's one thing still what 'bothers' me .. that is the cleanness of the space ship. But if that's what your going for then it is cool.

Alot better lighting.

(id go for a little more contrast in the image, its a little 'weak'..maybe a contrasting colour, or more shadows in the corners of the cool craft) look good tho, just a suggestion.
