My Art

I am no artist, and don't claim to be, but I do doodle from time to time, and am fairly proficient at 3D geometric modelling. These are some doodles and drawings which I have done. Feel free to download these, admire them, plaster them on your walls, but don't blatently copy them. I didn't slap copyright notices all over the images because I have a peculiar tendency to trust people. Most of the dates are either approximate or totally random. And most of them are on engineering paper because that's usually what I have at my disposal. Anyways, enjoy!

Dragons

Most of my art is dragon-related, for fairly obvious reasons. I am often trying to capture my own image, but usually fail and come up with something that looks fairly good anyways.
Me (Sep 19, 01)
After looking over SPark's wonderful drawing tutorial, I had figured out some of what was making my previous drawings look weird. Thus, I drew this, and came the closest I have to how I look. Thrown in is the tail end of my notes on directional derivatives.
Spread wings (Oct 27, 01)
This was a result of a bout of boredom during Calculus III.
Pen-test (Oct 7, 01)
I think this is the first time I've ever seriously tried to draw with pen, and at the time, probably the closest I've come to my own image. The proportions are horrible, however, because I couldn't erase. Pencil still rules.
Triad (Oct 1, 01)
The idea for this had been floating around in my mind for a while, and then I finally decided to start drawing it one day. It actually took me three days to do, because I drew each dragon in a day. The vectorized version of this eventually made it up on this page.
LightWave Test (Jun 23, 01)
AI9 Test (Jun 12, 01)
This was my test of Adobe Illustrator 9.0. To say the least, I now love that program. The image came out pretty good, too. If you want infinite zoomability, here is a PDF version of it.
Wings (Dec 24, 00)
This was originally going to be the header to an older lair design that I was building. The page itself became very bogged down, and the header image was far too byte-large to be a header image. This was done in POV-Ray, believe it or not.

Other

Crystal Tree (Jun 17, 00)
I created this for my dad on Father's Day. It was the first time I had managed to create something that looked like a tree, using a recursive algorithm in the wonderful POV-Ray. It took a mere 6 hours to render at 1280x1024 on my 350 MHz.
Sunrise (Jan 01, 00)
It was New Year's and I was feeling creative, so I made this. The scene itself is actually pretty simple, but the textures on the water and sky makes it fairly effective.
Portal (Jul 22, 98)
This is my POV-Ray masterpiece. I was originally creating it for a splash screen, but got a bit carried away. It took a mere 14 hours to render at 1600x1200 under Linux on my 350 MHz. Unfortunately, most of my other POV work of this era was lost.
