Hi, I'm Dave :^)
I've learned that Art is 5% inspiration and 95% perspiration! I started CGA as a hobby early 2004. This site is huge, so if you have seen any of my material, then thank you for taking the time.
BIO:I'm a widowed Electronics and Software design Engineer living in Southern California, about 60 miles east of Los Angeles.
My late wife Robin.. passed in 2003 after 31 wonderfully married years, the last 7 of which Robin was in poor health. I miss my Babe so much...
I'm working with Poser5, Bryce5.5, Wings3D, PSP-10 and CorelPaint8.My mother (Elnor) is also on this site as Silkylady. If you get a chance, please drop by her gallery and see her work.
Finally, remember these words of wisdom:
1) Don't sweat the petty stuff and don't pet the sweaty stuff.2) If your only tool is a hammer then all your problems will look like nails.3) It's amazing what can be accomplished when one doesn't know what one can't do.4) Very few know how much one must know in order to know how little one really knows.5) Give a man fire and you heat him for awhile. Set a man on fire and he is heated for life.6) Complexity is a set of things that we figured how to do right, one built on top of the other, until failure is achieved.7) Success is getting what you want. Happiness is wanting what you get.8) Marriage is a place where you can be wrong in ways you never thought possible.9) If a man speaks his mind in a forest and no woman hears him.. is he still wrong?10) If at first you don't succeed, then cover up all previous attempts that failed.
Please enjoy your visit! Dave :^)(AKA: 'davidoblad','DLO')

I'll drop both these models in my free download area on my Homepage Monday night. Don't be dissapointed when you see how simple they really are without the fancy textures. Maybe you folks can do something more special with them. And George..., be happy to do one for you next week! Dave :^)

Where the hell is Godzilla when you need him?! Wonderful work on the city and spaceship. I'll have pick that one up. Very excellent work!! :)

This exhibits something I call wealth depth. In this case it is very abstract. By this I mean the quality of the materials and the rare talent of the design varies between the two figures. One has to be capitalized and constructed in the real world and the other Is "free" in the sense of natural. Yet in Bryce both require the same aspects of design and construction. You didn't get lost.

It takes me four hours to turn on my computer! There is a lot of detail in the city, even a mini mall which is required in any space ship I ever ride in.I sure hope it has a gun store so I can purchase a BB gun to shot its eye's out or a sign that says (NO MONSTERS ON THE BEACH) Excellent work again BRAINMASTER. Beam me up Scotty!
