"No limit may be set to art, neither is there any craftsman that is fully master of his craft" Instruction of Ptahhotep Egyptian God of crafts.
I was born and raised in New Zealand, have British, Irish, and Chilean ancestry, bit of a mix I think lol. I’ve been doing digital art since 1998, in the early days of digital art. The first program I got hold of was Bryce 2, back then the most amazing program I had ever used for artwork . I’ve been an artist since I was a little kid painting drawing, sculpting anything really, but since the most earliest times I can remember I’ve always been into sci-fi and ancient cultures with lots of fascinations with tech thrown in as well. So when I got into using computers I was really excited because finally with programs like Bryce, Poser and Photoshop I was able to make those worlds I imagined come alive like I have never been able to do before. Now my most of my artwork is digital and with Bryce, Poser and Photoshop I am able to bring worlds like Atlantis and other strange Alien or ancient worlds to life. As well as being a visual artist I have been a bone carver since I was a teenager, carving both traditional New Zealand Maori and contemporary jewelry. Living now in Adelaide South Australia with my gorgeous wife and two beautiful step children

I like the aged look to the pyramid. How did you do that? A single terrain? It's a great model.

Yes, the pyramid is wonderfully done, but if there is a weakness in the picture, it is the statues. First of all, they ought to have a base of some sort. Secondly, marble pattern is too large and needs to be greatly reduced. Third, the Egyptians would likely have made them from sandstone or at least rock from their own desert. Fourth, they seem overlarge to my eye, but then it is hard to get the scale of the background. Are we looking at embankments of several feet or several hundred feet? Overall, though, I like the composition and the concept very much. The above is only mentioned with an eye to improving a good thing.
