That's my husband David and I, and my beloved kitty Lucia. Lucia adopted me in 1996, and David and I found each other here..we started as best of friends, and are still soulmates. We were married in England on 6 May, 2005.
BIOI've been dabbling in digital art for about 6 years, starting with Bryce 3. I think I've improved quite a bit. I've been at Rendero for quite a few years; enjoy the forums and galleries. I do graphics mainly as stress relief, and also because I can't draw with a pencil and paper worth a damn! (Didn't inherit any of my father's prodigious artistic talent)
The main programs I'm using these days are Vue Infinite, Poser 4.03, 5 and 6, PhotoShop 6 and CS, and PaintShop Pro 7 & 8. I also play with Terragen and Mojoworld 2 & 3 (among others).
I don't really stick to one genre; I've been bouncing between nature scenes, portraits, with and without postwork, people, places, things, nature, animals, and fantasy. Right now I'm concentrating on texturing and lighting in Vue 4 Pro, and have been doing sprite images because they make me feel so lighthearted.
My sweetheart's name here is madasatadpole, and he's a very talented and creative artist. Please visit his gallery to see some stunning landscapes as well as some very silly humor! So thanks to Renderosity for not only being a source of information and fun all these years, but for bringing me the most precious gift of all. His dad also has a gallery here, madasadadpole, lol, please stop by and check out his lovely watercolors.

Excellent realism on face! This is truely artwork!

Excellent work, not much computergraphic "feel" here. I have to say, though, that the hair could be better, IMHO. Some PS postwork (slightly blurring the edges etc.) could do the trick. But it is only because the face/skin/expression is SO convincing that I notice that. Brilliant already.

Amazing job, Christie! The eyes look so damn real, that you nearly expect him to blink from time to time. Most excellent!!! :)))

Excellent stuff D!
Kutter
Now thats some seriously good texturing DJ! A fantastic portrait!
FrenchKiss
WOWSERS!! And I thought only portraits rendered in Poser were any good. Boy was I wrong. This is absolutely amazing and Syyd's texture looks so real!! Are those eyes that came with the package or the RDNA ones? At any rate, very well done. A hundred votes if I could but one will have to do. (Have you tried opening the texture and darkening the nostril holes before rendering?)
