Description
A golden and white coated dog with a long and lanky form splashes through the shallows waters of a grassy wetland. This dog is a lurcher, a type of dog that it a cross between a sighthound and some other non-sighthound breed of dogs. They can be found in Ireland and Great Britain and can look quite different from one to another depending on the breeds of their parents. Generally though they are fast dogs with long thin legs and a thin body.
About how I create my artwork:
Rather than traditional forms of art such as painting or photography, I use a computer to create my images., It's called 3D Rendering and works like so: I make a scene by sculpting and arranging digital models in a virtual 3D space., After stipulating lighting and atmospheric effects, I have the computer create a simulated environment from which I take a virtual snap shot of the scene. Then, using image editing software and something more akin to traditional painting techniques (via a Wacom tablet), I go over the work adjusting colors, adding brushwork, painting in details, etc. to produce the final image. Software I use includes: Sculptris ZBrush, Blender3d, Vue, Daz Studio, and GIMP.
Thanks for looking!

Beautiful composite. Thank you very much for the 3D lesson. I see it in photoshop but never gave much thought to it till now. I like compositing myself and will be looking into that for sure. Incredible work.
