"Shapes and Forms against the Norm...Curves and Lines of Grand Designs..."

from the song "Grand Designs" by Rush, lyrics by Niel Peart

This is where I keep my completed pictures of art gallery - I usually have two or three in the works at one time. Most are my entries into the IRTC., nothing like having a topic to focus your thoughts.

The images are created using a combination of Paint Shop Pro, Moray, sPatch, and POV-Ray. If anyone is interested in getting the source code for these, just email me ([email protected]).

I have displayed them in reverse creation order - the newest ones are at the top. Click on the thumbnail to view the picture in 800x600.

Hidden Paradise

A day in the idyllic lives of the flowers and butterflies

As with almost all my entries it seems, I ran out of time - I would like to have put vines along the ceiling and added so much more green.

An Explosion

Distratced by a light, he looks up from his work. Devestated he staggers back, and reaches out for his family.

This image is based on an painting by Bob Eggelton. It was my submission for the topic Horror.

Technomancer

Casting a spell over its mystech scrying bowl, the technomancer calls for th the image that has plagued his electronic dreams.

This image is based somewhat on the work of Michael Whelan, who includes a dicotomy within each of his works. I wanted to blend fantasy withtechnology.

Tinkering in the Lab

In sub-basement 23 of Stark Solutions, Anthony Stark is working on his Iron Man helmet.

The workbench needs some more detailing, but I think the helmet is a perfect copy of the comic book version .

Top Secret Reading

X-files-ish picture of someone's desk. The scenario is that the CIA have been spying on some ETs. Having decided that they do not pose a substantialthreat, they have kidnapped a number of them as test subjects and hostages.

Welcome to the Human Museum of Aerospace.

Rulerwith an iron fist

Dr. Doom is still a work in progress(OK, I lied in the paragraph at the top, but I really like this one!). I need to work on the hand and the eyeballs.

WaterWyrm

NobleGases

The IRTC topic was Elements, and I couldn't get the Periodic Table out of my head. I have always thought the name Noble Gases was cool, so...

My first attempt at modelling clothes...

DarkKnight

Standing vigil, the Dark Knight looks out over his city. Moments before Commisioner Gordon activated the Bat Signal, calling out to the Caped Crusader.

I am very proud of this one. Batman has always been my favorite superhero, and I was very motivated to do this one well.

Lighthouse

Sailing into the night, the busy merchant looks out to the open sea and once again thanks the Gods for having the Lighthouse at Alexandria to call him homeward when his work is done.

Not my best work, but hey my wife had a baby!

BadSciFi

Geniein a bottle

The foolish sultan, astride his flying carpet, breaks the Seal of Solomon placed on the bottle's neck. Immediately the Djinn bursts forth.The mischevious genie will soon bring havoc on his supposed master's life. How can one control the power of a Tempest?

The smoky hand is a translational sweep with a smoky texture. No halos/media!!!

The Gathering of a Storm
