This page contains samples of some of my best artwork and various 3D models to date. Feel free to comment on anything you see here. BIO I have been an artist all my life from sculpting to painting to building ships in bottles I have had a hand in nearly everything. Several years ago I was given a glimpse at what a computer could do when an artist was at the helm. I quickly learned that the way to express myself and bring my visions to life was 3D art. I have a background in printing, graphics communication and advertising design. I became lead modeler at Faultline Studios and worked on illustrations for the card game "Crown of the Emperor". I have worked on several book covers and enjoy bringing ideas to life.
I am now lead graphics artist for RonEd Media and have continued to increase my abilities and portfolio. My goal has been to do illustrations for a sci-fi book, magazine or non-fiction titles on the paranormal. I enjoy creating various images usually sci-fi in nature that center on the darkside or human thought and technology. The many "what ifs" that fill our minds at dark hours and the need to believe in other things that give us hope in dark times. I have learned to use many programs and will likely learn many more to help in telling my stories better. The latest addition to my pallet is Vue 8 Complete and the results are amazing, expect more. I would like to thank Sci-fi channel and Sci-fi weekly for allowing me to share some of my visions with the world " My latest contribution to the 3-D world is the Cydonia model and material sets, a joint project between me and Gill Brooks. You can also find my "Shattered Worlds" sets and materials for Vue and Poser in the market place.

As a test render, I think it looks great. The atmosphere and the terrain are awesome. The only thing I would modify, if it were not a test render, would be to use some different textures on the wrecks. But other than that, it looks awesome.

Sweet scene.. very eerie. For the final render I would def. invest in some higher resolution vehicles. Nice work, actually all of the Shattered Worlds scenes have been top notch.

Nice scene - agree wiht Forevernyt and would add - a few different body models would help too.

Yep just a test of the atmosphere and the ecosystem. This is the road ecosystem that will come with the set, one with power poles one with no poles. I want to get the cracks in the road a bit more pronounced though. I really had no idea this image would turn out this well. I agree, one day I will add some new vehicles to this scene and re-render it as a final image, the car is just a basic wrecked vehicle from the SW street pack replicated a few times. I can't wait to see what other artists will do with these sets :)
