What kind of illustrations do you make?

[Syates]

Most of my illustrations are fractals and they are mostly done in Apophysis, like this one:

It even made "Best image of the day" at Crestock some weeks ago, but I must admit I don't know why, I find it OK, but not really outstanding, SY

I do illustrations in Photoshop and Illustrator. I just started using 3ds max and doing some 3d renders of models I have made.

[khz]

i use freehand still
hehe, then export to AI for final adjustments and path closing, etc,

and after that i export some of these to PS, for merging with one of my of textures here are examples

I use Bryce, 3ds Max, Apophysis, Terragen, Ultra Fractal, Illustrator, Chaoscope,Photoshop, Poser, Daz studio, Zbrush, and any combination of these.

Ok, I know, I know. I am an illustation whore!  I just love making pictures.

How did you manage do learn all these, I know and use the main fractal programs, and have a basic knowledge of corel draw, but then I looked at 3d renders and uff!, I downloaded blender, and it is sooo complicated. Are you an autodidact or did you go to art school to learn all these? SY

[Clivia]

I didn't learn them all at once! Most fractal programs are similar under the packaging, and its easy to switch between them.
Mostly I search out tutorials and follow until I get the hang of things, also the library is great for 'How to' books.
I hate reading the manuals! So boring.
I was glad I learned Illustrator, it gave me a great grounding in using the pen tool that has been invaluable in Photoshop.
Zbrush is just plain fun.
Do you use Chaoscope? It gives fractals that are very different to Apophysis.

Zbrush? Never heard of it, do you ahve a link?
Chaoscope, yes I tried it, but you can only save as .bmp and that gave very "edgy" results, after converting to .jpg. SY

Care to share the program you made it with?  Looks great! SY

Nice use of reflection.

[Edgar]

This illustration is a part of bigger icon set (which I make now) In next days I show you next parts. Here are ready illustrations.

I will change lens glass in webcamera - it's not good.

[nicemonkey]

I like the way you have approached these Illustrations giving a modern twist to a subject that has been done many times. I hope these sell well.
