Drawn in Photoshop from a photograph I took on Boxing Day.

Amy
Rerendering one of my favorite all Bryce models. I was inspired to do so by the first page of The Gashlycrumb Tinies by Edward Gorey.

Created January 5, 2007

Basil was eaten by bears. It's the second verse in The Gashlycrumb Tinies.

Clara
I was inspired to do so by the first page of The Gashlycrumb Tinies by Edward Gorey. Clara is the third child.

Created January 8-9, 2007

Desmond
Desmond fell off a sleigh. It's the fourth verse in The Gashlycrumb Tinies.

Created January 10-12, 2007

Ernest
Ernest is the fifth child in The Gashlycrumb Tinies. He choked on a peach. I created the peach in Carrara's vertex editor.

Created January 14, 2007

Fanny
Fanny is the sixth child in The Gashlycrumb Tinies. She was gotten by a leech. I created the hat in Carrara's vertex modeler.

Created January 17, 2007

George
George is the seventh child in The Gashlycrumb Tinies. In the book he's actually suffocated by a rug but that seemed really difficult to illustrate in the style I've set up for this series. I put the tipped over chair to draw attention to the rug. The butterfly is just there to provide a little contrast to the blue of the carpet.

Beach Walk
I did this drawing to learn how to make custom dynamic brushes. I used my custom brush to make the sand texture.

Created January 22-3, 2007

Hector
Hector is the eighth child in The Gashlycrumb Tinies. He was strangled.

Created January 24, 2007

I did this drawing to practice with the brushes and the new blending options.

Glaciers
Now that my computer has extra memory I'm able to run MojoWorld again. Glacier is rendered from Planet Clarke.

Change in the Weather
Planet Nozomi is the 220th challenge planet hosted at the 3DCommune. It's the first challenge render I've done in almost a year.

Created January 25-6, 2007

Janus Twilight
Janus is my first attempt at building a MojoWorld planet in more than a year. It will be the 222nd challenge planet (in March).

Created January 26-8, 2007

Ida
I had trouble setting up the scene for Ida. I originally tried using Wappen's boat but it just didn't work right in the scene. Also I had the lighting too dark to show the water. I ended up building the boat in Carrara and restarted the project from a copy I spawned off Fanny.
