Every 3D artist has to eventually do a version of the shiny female robot, I think it's a requirement.

I planned on having a small object sit on the newspaper I had been working on, and put the sphere there as a place holder. I loved the reflections and refractions so much, I had to use it as is.

These four dragons are all actually the same purple dragon rendering with the colors altered in Photoshop. Never underestimate Photoshop. This one works great when tiled!
The wide version actually has 6 dragons, rather than cropping or spacing, a 3rd row looked better.

I am working too much right now, hence the work theme. I can't wait until I'm doing remote beaches again.

I had finished a version of this one a few months ago, but lost half the work in a computer crash. The fun was gone, so it took much longer to re-create.

Originally, the pier was a section longer, but the fishing rod was lost in the background.

a Dragon attack, 3 dragons ambush a larger one. I like this one, I may add more detail to the background and see if it will work as a poster.

Bryce 5's trees refused to work the way I wanted, so I used complex models in the solid glass spheres instead. This turned out to be a mistake. Due to the intense reflection depth rendering, this took a week to render.

I love how dramatic this one is. I wanted more room to better see the lighting effects around the windows, but the composition worked better this way.
