My second batch of 100 “Thank You” cards arrived from Zazzle over the weekend but I’ve already sent out nearly 80 of them! The boys had a marathon signing session last night…
You can still get one of these “Pot of Gold (Night)” cards if you hurry. Otherwise I will be moving on to the next design soon!

“Island in the Void” is new in the Members Gallery this morning. The title refers back to this piece from 2001.
I started playing around with this model on Asfaloth while waiting for “Cronus Rising” to render on Bucephalus. My goal was to create a believable galaxy in Lightwave using the new instancing tools (and no Hypervoxels).
This one rendered in around 90 minutes at 4800 x 3000 with 24 anti-aliasing passes. That certainly beats the 24 hours that a similar Hypervoxel render would take. I’m still learning all the tricks to the new instancing system so this is just the beginning.
Let me know what you think!
I’ve also added dual and triple-screen versions of “Cronus Rising“.

After all that tinkering with Vue’s planetary rendering mode, I thought I should bring it all together was a nice planetscape. “Cronus Rising” is new in the Members Gallery this morning.
The planets are a combination of two different Vue renders (it only lets you render one planet at a time) and the foreground was also rendered using Vue 2014.
You might detect the influence of my recent visit of Washington state.
Here’s the original from 1998 if you are curious as to how they match up! I hope you like the update!!
