• Happy Thanksgiving! Jessie and I are hosting our first Thanksgiving dinner this year and I’m trying to stay out of her way. Though I am far away from my family this year, I do have much to be thankful for. Jessie and I wish you have a safe and happy holiday!

• The latest edition of my CD-ROM is now available. It contains over 460 renders from my first attempts with Kai Power Tools to my latest World Builder render. The price is $14.95.
• I added “Tropic of Cancer” to the gallery today. I wanted to redo “Tropic of Capricorn” using the new atmospherics offered by Vue d’Esprit 4. I hope you enjoy the results.

• I’ve posted a new wallpaper today, “The Sleeping Forest“. This was my first real experience working with the new version of World Builder (the software I used for “Song of the Sky”, “Glenwood” and “Sunset Fog”). There are some really cool new features in World Builder 3, but there’s an equal (or greater) number of bugs.

  Bugs notwithstanding, I probably kept this one back longer than I should have, thinking that if I just “worked on it some more tomorrow” then something excellent would happen. Now I think it’s time to move on to something else. I hope you enjoy this latest work.

• Some of you have written asking where to purchase the CD-ROM. I’ve temporarily removed the link to the CD-ROM shopping cart, as I am in the process of creating an updated version of the disc (with all my work up to “The Sleeping Forest”). I didn’t want anyone to buy the old disc if the new one was so close to coming out. Sorry for any confusion. I’ll make a post here when the new disc is available.

• Ok. This picture has taken way longer than I had originally intended. The render is finishing right now and I’m going to post it this afternoon.

• I’ve been working on something new for the past four days now. I’m working with the new World Builder Version 3. Sorry to say that things are going pretty slow. There are some cool new features in Version 3 but there’s also a lot of new bugs. I should have something to show you in the next day or two.
