I enjoy creating artwork in Poser, Photoshop CC, Vue, and DAZ Studio. I also have a passion for photography, and have been actively shooting for many years. I've been using Poser since Version 8, and am also learning my way around DAZ Studio. I've been using Adobe Photoshop since version 4. I also use Vue 10. I frequently use my photos as backgrounds, and composite my 3D figures into them.
I have been creating my web comic / graphic novel "The Girls From T.N.A." since fall of 2009, and have been a member of Renderosity since August 2009. I've made a lot of wonderful friends here, and have been inspired every time I visit!
I will soon have a more complete biography, as I am updating everything. In the meantime, have a look around my gallery!
Thanks!
Rod

Was wondering about that cruise ship. Love the atmosphere you've on on this scene with them looking at the ship. You got me on clue with wolf. I'm so such a space brain. Suffer from serious CRS. but I know I'll enjoy chapter 7 with all the hints and exciting developments leading up to it.
Cool, Cool, COOL!!

A fantastic scene. That lighting is dramatic and absolutely gorgeous. Excellent job of blending all the parts, it looks like this was a lot of work but it was worth it!

Love this, Rod...You really out did yourself...the lighting is gorgeous and your compositing and PW are top drawer. Look forward to the upcoming chapter. Have no idea what your wolf reference is...

Hmm, looks like Miho is keeping an eye on the 'small' boat the girls just got. Just one of the many developments in this chapter and chapters to come.

The sunset burnt-orange and shadowing on the characters and grass really sets the tone here. Fantastic.

An absolutely amazing scene, Rod. Good thing it was Miho who was watching the yatch, and not someone out to wreak havoc!
And that sunset photo and the light bouncing off the water plane, great work!

'Wow'! This image is beyond beautiful Rod......it's absolutely stunning! I love everything about this.....the lighting is awesome, and I like the way that the whole scene has sort of a golden glow to it.....it makes it look magical!! I also like the girl and the wolf.....they both look awesome! I'm guessing that the girl with the wolf, just might be one of your newest characters, that you refer to as 'The Wolfgirl'!! I've been wondering when she would be making an appearance!! I luv wolves, and I'm anxious to see what happens next!! Awesome work Rod!!! I likey very much!! 'lol'!

first, Rod, there were buildings and street lights in that background scene? Man, I'd never have guessed! Good digital surgery! Next, your light is beautiful, and I love how it streaks across your model and wolf, in that neon orange-red (even on her hair---really fine work). Next, people chose "Miho"? Well, not being a 3D artist, i don't know who that is (and if you've used her before, many apologies for my being so dense), but you've painted an almost yearning scene with her and the wolf looking like characters from a Wyeth painting (see this: https://www.moma.org/collection/works/78455...I know they're very different, but your piece reminds me of the Wyeth, where Miho looks like she's looking into distant dreams). Also, the flowering tree (left side) is a beautiful addition. It really has for me an air of yearning for something out of reach, like maybe there's something on that boat that brings Miho way back in time. (I assume that's your characters' yacht? am I close?) Beautifully done, Rod, and the light is beautiful. Good luck on the trailer and chapter! I know you've been working on them a long time...(do you complete a whole chapter, and then work out the details on each page, or do you compose them as you go along? I'd assume you have to at least have an overall vision of a chapter before you dive into each page...it's a lot to plan and manage...which is why I don't do multi-piece pieces. I go batty if I have to plan that far ahead...)

An excellent composition with gorgeous lighting ! Is she "Firefly" with long hair ?...Great work with all these different programs, Rod, and thank you for the explanations on your work !

She is.. And she has knowledge, skills, and resources that would make most countries jealous. Have a look at Rajib's Gallery to learn more about her. 👍😉
