Doug Sturk has been drawing as long as he can remember: on walls, floors table tops. As an only child growing up in the Midwest, he learned to use his imagination and be creative. Encouraged by his mother, a graphic artist, he honed his skills and excelled in art. He claims to have preferred markers and regular scissors over crayons and safety scissors in Kindergarten. Eventually Doug put away his easel and paints trading up for his first copy of Poser... he's never looked back.
BIO
Doug continued to create as much as possible: award-winning 3-D artwork, landscape photography, Web design and writing. With his work at the former 3D Comic Collective (eventually www.animotions.com) he became well known for his comic book style of artwork. Doug's notoriety increased as he became the Web artist of "Shirtless Girl" on the nationally syndicated "Bob & Tom" radio show (www.bobandtom.com).
From Bob & Tom - Doug went on to work for various adult erotic story sites... just ask.
You can still stop by Doug's page at DeviantArt https://sturkwurk.deviantart.com/ and browse through the many different galleries, or just drop off a note and say "hi".

The picture looks fantasy, but looks so real!
TOPcat831
It's awesome baby!!!!!!
SmallFry
That is really nice! Well done!!

Great light in this; would like to see it with a Vue terrain instead of the Poser one, with an interesting texture, that would really make this outstanding.

I'm not going to harp on the comment about the ground... you already know that bit. It would be nice to see more of the image though... compositionally speaking, this would be an even more compelling narrative image to have a background view... perhaps a valley filled with war tents and seige machines and proud elvish banners flying in the wind. I specially love the elf's haughty expression. Outstanding work, my friend... you have really cranked up the quality of your output without losing your amazing touch.

Love the light in this one. his pose with the arms behind the back is very strong.& have to agree about the terrain(blame me for that :p)..I'd be interested to see it with a vue terrain

Damn Doug, I have to second stoney's comment on the lighting! I 've done a few Vue renders in the past, and I never got lights to look this good. Some detail in the background would be nice.

Excellent quality realism in the characters. Terrific image.

OMG!!! It looks really awesome!!! Youve made me decide to purchase VUE :)

Again, wonderful composition - your pictures tell good stories. I agree with the earlier comments about the ground. The woman's right arm looks a little wonky, but that's a shortcoming of the 3D model: it just stands out to me because the male figure (and accessories) looks so comparatively real! Laters!
raevens
excellant! man your talent.. i am impressed.
MetaLeath
