BIO
My name is Todd Shearer and I live in the US, on the east coast, near Washington D.C., but don't hold that against me, it's not my fault...really. I live with my significant other and two beagles, Hephaestus (aka Heph) and Nyarlethotep (aka Nya). and the ghost of Yogsothoth (aka Yogdog) And yes, feel free to make the Indianna Jones joke about my being named after the dog. I am presently one of the great unemployed masses, trying to make my way into being able to almost support myself with my art and writing. I try not to be a one trick pony, doing a landscape here, a portrait there, a pin-up over next to the wall...yeah, there in the corner...or whatever else comes to mind. I read and write mostly horror, though I make a point of forcing myself to read at least one classic "should be read" book every four or five cheesey horror or fantasy novels I read. Presently I am working on Dante's Divine Comedy and coming to regret the choice. My favorite artists are Vermeer, Brughel, Barry Windsor-Smith, Bernie Wrightson and Thom Canty... talk about ecclectic. My favorite writers are Stephen King (there's a surprise), H.P. Lovecraft, James Michener and Douglas Adams. Anything else you wish to know? Feel free to ask and I will do my best to answer. Yerz, Yogdog

Aye, I like everything except for the Brycean stars... The image would be just perfect without them! I like the poses and the fire looks pretty cool too!

Thanx for all your comments. I apologize for the pic being so large, but it is so wide that if I reduced it to fit easily on the screen all the detail of the figures would have been lost. A note to Legolas240000: Sadly the smoke was postwork. I just can't get a good grip on volumetric materials and get them to come out looking right. A note to Lordstormdragon: The stars are not Brycean...I added them later in post work. Without them the scene looked a little dead...but I agree that they may not be right still. I will try and get it right next time. ;-)

super scene and mystical.

What a wonderfully atmospheric night scene, aside from the fact you have perfectly captured one of my favourite travel spots in England. Do one of Avebury next!
