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.

Awesome images, Bill! Well worth the time you invested, I'd say! You've made him look so gorgeous! I'm also having a terrific time playing with him! And you're so right: he is the most versatile figure in my arsenal (well, along with A3, and for the same reasons). Take care around those slides! hugs Ish
PandyGirl

Sekadhar

Cool looking trio of pics Bill! You did a fantastic job with this character! Now for P6, i have yet to play with it, but i'm glad for the info. It gives me something to watch for when i do get around to playing with it! Take care and be safe!..Dave
Artzy

very nice work, thanks for the info on Poser 6 i remember when 5 first came out...what a nightmare, but i was more concerned with the lighting and rendering engine on this upgrade, but i see its gonna be fun to find out what it can do...
jwdell
AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I really hate it when my trapazoids act up, it's very embarrassing! lol! Superb trio of images once again...I love it when you do that! Hiro looks awesome and the texture and morphs are incredible! I haven't messed with Aiko yet, I'm a bit behind on that. P6 runs pretty well here, although navigating the library is so slow with a massive runtime!! I've had some problems with IBL and AO, and there is a lot of trial and error. Seems it doesn't get the same effect each time. I just can't believe the details in these images, they are all fantastic and so well done! Your characters are always amazing and you have a very sharp eye with textures and morphs! Keep fiddling with P6, I guess that's all we can do until the next SR patch is released! Superb artwork!
Leita
Beautiful render!! Awesome composition!!Excellent artwork!!:D
B_PEACOCK
Yeah Bill my P5 does that also .More memory .When I load alot into a scene .It really hangs up .I know my problem is to many background programs and poser can suck memory dry .These are all awesome images
eres
Fantastic artwork my friend!!!!Lol!!! Poser5 makes me crazy with amazing bugs...I don't prefer imagine what the 6 is...
SK2Design
Awesome! I just bought Hiro as well, though I haven't used him yet. Going by your images though, he looks absolutely amazing. I'm also glad I'm not the only one finding 'bugs' in Poser 6. :P Outstanding artwork! :)
Shakti27
Amazing werk the three of them S I especially love the one in the middle (so romantic in their adoring gazes to one another) and the last one (that texture looks fantastic on him S) Outstanding werk despite the setbacks S
prog
Well, maybe I have to get this character-he looks less "toonlike" in these images!!!! All of the images are fantastic Bill!! The speed at which you create such wonderful images is so impressive!!! EXCELLENT!
GOLDILOCKSUK
Wow the tattoos on the last one are simply stunning. A great array of your talent it's amazing :) Cathy xoxoox
Halcion
Excellent piece Bill! You do amazing work with any program :-) They always find a way to get you ;) Well done!!!

Hiro looks like a cool character and you've done some excellent renders with him! I was really hoping CL fixed all of Poser 5's problems but it sounds like 6 isn't much better.
Jay7347
That's some really nice work! -jay
iamkate101
you have done an outstanding job with all three images, and I especially love the bottom one!!! I havent tried him yet but when I do , i hope that he comes out 1/4 as well as yours!!! excellent!!!!

Wonderful images, Bill. I like the way you put them three frames here.
dburdick
Great characters Bill -- thanks for giving us the low down on these. It looks like David might be a good investment. Too bad about the phone lines - try high speed cable or satellite.
Avalonne
Sorry to hear of all your Poser 6 woes :-( I've only played around in it once or twice, so I have no real experience in it yet...I guess I'm an old dog who hates learning new tricks LOL All that aside, I love all the images, but I do believe the second one would have to be my favorite :-)
SophiaDeer
He is so handsome!! Wonderful softness and I like his pose. I am sorry to hear about the problems you are having with Poser 6 and hope they get resolved soon.

Dear Bill, boy oh boy do you know how to push my buttons! Start with Poser 6 - I visit something like 200 galleries - and probably 150 of those use Poser - I haven't seen anyone yet that is not having similar grief with it. Why the dickens are they shipping a program that is still 6 months of development away from working properly - or even better - why is anyone buying it? My professional life has been spent in electrical engineering and computer science - and a lot of that has been software development - how can people turn out such awful work? The whole thing is totally beyound me. I was at a site yeasterday that had 160 million polygons that Vue rendered in an hour! A medium res Meredith at 65 thousand polygons takes half a day to render in 5 - and I haven't even tried 6. AND - then there is DAZ - that still doesn't know where the joints are supposed to be - that creates texture mappings that are asymmetrical and look like a skinned alien. Oh well, it's probably best that Little Meredith shut up and go to bed! Love, Meredith

chrislenn
