Nimue's Price Out Now

Tuesday, May 22nd, 2007

Kim’s first fantasy story (stop sniggering at the back) came out today. I read Nimue’s Price a few months ago before it went to be editor and really, really enjoyed it. If you like your fantasy with a twist or your Camelot a little unexpected I’d recommend it. In fact even if you like your […]

No Good Plan Survives Sunday

Sunday, May 20th, 2007

After the usual Saturday yesterday of shopping and housework I had planned to split my time between wxPython in Action and writing. Well I did open the book at about eight PM and after getting wx running again and working through a few other bits and pieces it got shut. I do think that with […]

A little Apophysis and a Little Dragon

Monday, May 14th, 2007

While I was working on Little Dragon getting the last of the big pieces of the puzzle that reveals the threat my Noir Fairy Tale has been building to I was rendering a little visulisation of the threat. More of a concept than a fully worked image. Made using Apophysis and Vue 6 Infinite.

Face Shop Pro – Just Not Ready for the Big Time

Sunday, May 13th, 2007

I’ve never returned a product to Daz before but Face Shop Pro just didn’t live up to the product description for me. I’ve given it quite a lot of time. I’ve read the manual. Repeatedly. The morphs were, saddly, either too uneven to be worth using or had strange bits that stuck out. A couple […]

Wordless Wednesday #4

Wednesday, May 9th, 2007

A photograph of one of the sculptures at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park I took a couple of years ago. I think it’s a Henry Moore but I could be wrong. I’ve posted an explanation of how I made last weeks WW – Creating Tree on a Hill. 1. And Miles to Go… 2. Alison 3. […]

Making Tree on a Hill

Tuesday, May 8th, 2007

Last weeks picture I made for WW was made entirely in Vue. I started with Vue’s default settings. I began by creating a terrain object. In the terrain editor clicked on the erode button till the default mountain became a smoother hill shape. I resized the terrain to fit the picture I had in mind […]

impworks Redecorated

Sunday, May 6th, 2007

I’ve finished the first phase of redecorating the impworks web site. I’ve added the sidebar image. I intend to change this fairly often and I may put it on an auto rotation script sometime. I’ve also fiddled with the CSS to move the navigation from right to left on the site. I’d noticed I was […]
