I've been back at uni for a week now... I've had to go from sleep at 4am up at 2pm to up at 6am every day. Add to that the Flu which I seem to have contracted and the generally shit nature of my timetable and words cannot express how much like shit I feel.
That's all I have to say about that...

I was working on a sig a while back.. but I've kinda lost interest in it. Kinda lacking in ideas for one.. and photoshop skills.
Wanted to make something and then make a t-shirt with the same thing on the back.. I reckon that would be sweet.

hehe thanks, dunno, just pretty much self taught over the past 7 or so years... i spose it all came from macpaint when i was about 6
i was gonna do a course on it at a place here in adelaide but the ones that i want to do are like 2 grand... way too much, maybe in the future if all this engineering packs in.. or maybe combine it with eng, thatd be cool

That's some real talent.. its gotta be useful for something. I can't imagine how one would combine that with eng, but if you could somehow I'd like to see what comes out the other end. But 7 years is a long time, I've only been trying to use photoshop for about 4 months.. I've had it for about a year now.
Suffice to say I've got a long way to go before I can produce anything of the quaility.
*edit* I was just curious also how long it would take you to make something like that?

yeah, they mostly werent done in photoshop except for post render production stuff, most of it is in bryce (cheap & easy) and some of the recent stuff is done in maya & lightwave. have you done all the cad stuff from uni yet? its pretty much the same idea, you make all the things and the bits and pieces like a virtual scene then you render them to create the image.
umm.. it ranges really, like the sunset one in there took maybe a few hours to make and texture then about four hours to render (10000x3500)and the one that looks like the inside of a cathedral took a few weeks to make (a couple of hours a day) and about nine days straight to render (1600x1200) and im still not happy with it. so, yeah it varies... usually a couple of days or a weekend for each one if thats all im doin and im bored... lol, i prolly should update the site actually havent in a few months...
if you want to give it a go see if you can get a copy of bryce 5 and look at any tutorials on the net for ideas or help... i'm mucking around with animations at the moment i'll upload one to my site my latest one. hehe been mucking around with spaceships
