After coming back from Rustycon in January I knew I wanted to incorporate a dragon into my next render. Here is a concept for what eventually became “The World Watches“. I decided in the end to go in a more metaphorical direction.

Members can download this version (and the “pool only version”) from my Pickle Jar.

Let me know which do you prefer (eye, dragon, pool only) and I will use that one for the main gallery. Thanks!

I’ve added my “final” version of “Amazed” to the Members Gallery this morning. I incorporated quite a few Member suggestions for this last render and I think this one turned out rather nicely. Over 180 billion polygons!

Check out the original “Amazed” here for comparison. I hope you guys like the updated version!

Next up I would like to do one last render of “Rite of Spring” and then multiscreens…

“Receptor” was my practice for this update to an old favorite from ’02. I still have a tweak or two I would like to make so consider this render a “release candidate” for now. Let me know what you think!

Here’s a little Valentine’s Day bonus for my Members: When I first rendered “Take Two” a few years ago I learned that Eros (or Cupid in Latin) carried two varieties of arrows. A gold arrow would make anyone fall in love. A lead arrow had the opposite effect.

Here is a rendering of my heart arrows representing this duality. Multiscreens available too!

I hope you enjoy this render and have a wonderful Valentine’s Day!

Here’s a new, render of “Rite of Spring” that more closely matches the darker tone of the original 2002 World Builder render. The first version will remain in the Pickle Jar.

Improvement?

In other news, I put on my programmer hat yesterday and added “Google Wallet” as a payment option for new and returning Members.

Current Members can renew or upgrade to Lifetime here. It’s really a pretty nifty system. Very quick! Let me know if you have any questions or concerns about using the new option.
