Hi my name is Bill(started here as Primaltruck). I am an old hippy from the santa cruz mountains.I live with my wife and kids Alice and Chris..we also have 2 other kids Jason and leah, that are married and live elswhere..we live in the redwood forest with a spring and waterfall on our property and about 700 2nd growth redwoods..My artwork is definetly inspired by were i live and my family.My daughter(Alice) being a Tatoo artist and wife being my worst critic.she knows me and knows how to tell me when something doesnt look right without getting under my skin..Alice likes all art so she always says good things that help inspire me and i try to do the same for her..if you look at my rendorosity gallery you will see that i had a pretty rough start and took a year or so to get the hang of 3D art as i have always scetched and painted and created..But learning how to deal with something new is always an adventure..and its been a lot of fun and i have made alot of friends along the way.I mostly use Bryce and Poser and Photoshop on a Dell PC..and plan on getting Vue in the near future..and...I couldnt talk about art with out mentioning Dudley Wade(Prog)Who was one of my first friends here and a heck of a great teacher and i think i learned more from his advise and studying his art than anything else....I dont think i have a style,except that my style is in doing something different when i can think of it!and the longer i post art in these galleries the more i realize that its not really about the art but about the friendships made....getting better with our art is just icing on the cake..I have also been a musician all my life and have played guitar for 30 some odd years..Loving everything from Mel Torme to Jimi Hendrix to all the great new music i hear..some Favorites..Frank Zappa,Stevie Ray Vaughn,Beatles,Pink Floyd,Yes,Scott Henderson,Steve Vai,Joe Satriani,Steve Morse,Nuno Bentencourt,Paul Gilbert,Vinnie Moore,Frank Gambale,Al Dimeola,Les Paul,Chet Atkins,Speedy wes,Jimmy Brynt,Barney Kestle,Charlie Byrd,and many more..i have been posting at renderosity mostly and at Dreamslayerart,Tapestry of dreams,Innertraveler,artzone,renderotica and 3DCommune..not all at the same time...lol...I am very easy to get along with and treasure the friendships made here..I am not afraid to speak up for what i believe in ,am strictly non violent,love nature,and always looking for fun and a reason to celebrate life...so dont be afraid to say hello or ask for help..I dont bite that hard...Love and Peace and Respect.

Bill... love the top image. Also, I tried your PSP hair tubes. I didn't get the same results that you did (PSP 8.1). It looks like you added some softening or blurring to get the shimmering effect to the hair. You hair turotial was great however.

Beautiful werk - the lower gal reminds me of Cher a bit with that long beautiful hair and the sparkly outfit ;) both are absolutely stunning - and I say it says one upload, not one image :p HUGE HUGZ

1 file is 1 pic and 1 upload, are they going to ban multiframe comic strips next? I love the poses and the expressions, TYVM for sending me the tubes to try my hand at hair painting

As far as I know, 1 image is 1 file is 1 upload. If you combine multiple renders into one image, what's wrong with that? I've looked into the discussions that led to the 1 upload per day limit, and it all had to do with the number of uploads and thumbnails, not with the number of frames within one file!
Both frames are very well done, personally I like the top one best. Excellent work!
Elfenone
Ahh This is beautiful A gorgeous composit of work by a very talentd and kind hearted..not to mention generous artist and dear friend. HUGS I love the tubes.. I'm about to post my image.. using them.. S
Avalonne
I see no problem with combining two or three images into one...I think it's a great idea! And I love both of these....most excellent work :-)

Bill there is a specific width and a specific length for pics and as far as I can see, you fall well below the length specs so continue to do your thing!! Anyone who complains and starts hassling only jealous cuz they can't do it LOL!! Awesome images by the way. Keep it up!!
SK2Design
Absolutely beautiful images and what fantastic birthday card images to give friends! The colourful backgrounds you use are wonderful and your characters are adorable. Awesome!
SeaCrystal
I adore the top image for the pose, and the shy little way she looks down her nose!! Her wings looks so delicate and such a perfect little winged fae!! The second one looks great love her wings and the background colors! It doesn't bother me if you post two or more images on one upload!! Whatever floats anyones boat is fine by me, as long as it doesn't harm/hurt anyone else! My policy is to do my own thing, and let others do theirs!! It's a good way to stay happy! -SeaC- :)
