BIO
Started in 1981 with graphical simulation of industrial robots - part of my studies of math in Stuttgart (Germany). Then, by accident, 1984 Bavaria Film asked me to do computer animations for Enemy Mine (director Wolfgang Peterson, produced in Munich, Germany). That was my start into the more creative part of the business. From there on til 1991 i worked as an animation designer with several sorts of software (BTS FGS 4000, TDI, ...). We did commercial animations but tought students (from the Stuttgart Academy of Art) as well (half-half). After that i had the opportunity to make a move into event and "classical" design business. And there I still am - doing mostly print design in a little agency I am running with some friends. I kept always an eye on the 3D business, but only with the appearance of Vue d'Esprit on Mac i found a sort of way back into 3D graphics. This software for me is the ideal combination of easy-to-use and quality results so it was great fun to work with from the first moment on. Let's see where this all will drift to - who knows.

Really fine pic ! "Good boy", Wabe ;-! I even hear the old nickelodeon at the bistro down on the port, hope somebody'll come up with a bottle of wine ?

So it is the mice that are going to steel the car...lol. Keep up the good work and humour, my friend. Well done, and I like the lighting in both of them:)

SUPERB! I'm happy you removed the birds, now, with those rats the composition and mood is perfect! V
Doro
WOW! Mouse-city? And those mice are the poor ones Wendy has forgotten to dress up? Well, you should send her to this lost alley and take care of the poor mice! Wonderful image, Walther and the lighting is fantastic! V

LOL@Doro!! No wonder they need a fire, Walther, they're cold! Excellent rework with brighter lighting!

Excellent new version Walther. Great characters!

Hmmmmm? I guess being a "city guy" all those pigeons didn't phase me in the least? BUT? Mice of this size is an entirely different story...EVEN the wharf rats 'round here don't grow THIS BIG...LOL! Either version works for me, my friend '-)!!

Well, I think the rats warming themselves by the fire gives it a warm feeling - not as spooky - but certainly another fascinating verison. Really excellent work. :o) CC

Yo, Walther! I think I'd better stay off this alley, since you never know how those "oildrum guys" react if a stranger enters their territory. ;) Nice ligthning - especially like that cathedral in the back. Well done!
BGHart
Much better than the first version. :)) Spitzenarbeit, Walther. Bravo!
deevee

Excellent lighting and atmosphere, Walther - well done!

This is way cool. The use of figures as well as background is awsome!

Great work but the street looks like stairs. I think that effect should be toned down. I miss the pigeons & hoped they could be placed better. Please don't be offended. I appreciate your courage to post and your artwork. The perspective is great and humans are just mice on a marble maze looking for warmth as your picture might suggest.

Absolutely wonderful, Walther! Excellent artwork!!
