It's fun being an early adopter and practitioner of 3d art, and seeing how fast it has grown in such a short time. I remember in the 1980's seeing Pixar's 3d knight in the movie Young Sherlock Holmes and thinking I really want to do that someday. Back then they needed a Cray supercomputer just to do the rendering. Today we can churn images like this on decent desktop machines. It is truly liberating to create an entire virtual world, and I can't wait to see what the future holds for us all.BIOI first started creating 3d art in 1993, with the advent of KPT Bryce 1.0. I was an avid beta tester and contributor of images to the old HSC and KPT galleries on a very young AOL. Since then I've served on the faculty of every Brycecamp, consulted on the initial concepts of Mojoworld, and added Vue, Carrara, Poser, Mojoworld, Artmatic Voyager, and Electricimage Animation System to my arsenal of favorite apps.
I enjoy doing the occasional still life, but landscapes are my passion. I really enjoy being a 3d artist and using the creative and technical sides of my brain at the same time. The chaos of nature is difficult to recreate, but we keep getting better tools and faster computers. Instancing tools and fractal driven distribution schemes have taken us a long way to recreating that chaos and realism.
I love creating virtual worlds and environments and some day soon I would enjoy putting these skills to the test in a feature film or game.

Reminds me of the Oregon coast as well. Nice!

This is a really nice render. Very subtle texturing and atmosphere. Beautiful!

Thanks Jamie and Bruce. Yeah the entire northwest coast looks like this from California all the way to Washington. Oregon is definitely rugged and beautiful as well. There are 6 more images coming from this series - so I should be posting an image a day for most of the week. Thanks again for your comments and I'm really glad you like it.

Hi Scott! This is a beauty. That grayness everywhere is beautiful. The water, foam and apparent layer of thick soft gray fog over it makes for an interesting time exposure appearance. It's great to have you here and to see your work again!

Thanks everyone! Hi Tino - it's been a long time since the old days of the early Brycers on AOL - hehe. It's great to be here and create landscapes that we always dreamed we'd create in Bryce - they are finally realized in Voyager. That 'little blue camera' is working overtime ; )
