Lame Bio: I've been a frustrated artist for most of my life. Then I discovered Poser and was suddenly able to make images that one could consider art if one was drunk enough. I can't draw to save my life, nor can I paint or sculpt. Some people consider rendered art to not be art because you are essentially using digital paper dolls to make images. These people are full of crap. It's not the medium that matters. It's the mind behind the art that matters. Even with the largest library of characters, sets, poses and clothes, if you don't have the eye you won't make squat anyone wants to look at.

About my work: I mostly do female pinup art. I also dabble in the occasional male pinup image ('cuz the wife loves 'em) as well as the more often non-pinup images of girls. I do some outright adult images that would violate the TOS here. If you want to see those check out RaunchyMinds or Renderotica. I post under the same name there as I do here.


Commissions: I don't accept commissions (yet, I'm not sure I'm that good) but if you have any ideas you'd like to see, send me a note and I'll think about it. If it's something that interests me, is not a violation of DA or relevant laws, and it fits within the confines of my skill level, I might do it.

Prints: The images I upload here are aimed at desktop resolutions and are pretty low resolution for prints. If anyone would like a print of my work let me know and I'll master a high resolution version suitable for prints. It may have a slightly different cropping as it will will be sized to printing aspect ratios rather than screen aspect ratios, and it won't have the white framing on it. I might not be able to make print versions of older images as I didn't keep the working copies of the images until a year or so ago.

Favorites: You might have noticed that I only have one image (sometimes two) per artist in my fave list. I'm not particularly interested in cataloging every image I like by every artist. I use my faves list as a means to share artists I like with others. A list-o-links if you will.

Speaking of Faves, I'm not big on thanking everyone for adding my work to their faves list. It's not that I don't appreciate it, I do. It's that I'm just a lazy slob. Ask my mother-in-law. I never send thank you notes.

Critiques: I am open to constructive criticism and suggestions on how to make my work better. No artist gets better in a vacuum.

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you like my work.

Your stuff is awesome ^.^, how do you make it?
I use a program called Poser, a smidge of talent and a lot of trial and error.
