Copyright Changes

I changed the Creative Commons licensing for this site. The third element now reads 'share alike'. I learned a lot about computer graphics by manipulating artwork created by others. I hope my art encourages others to get creative. Please note that pictures by other artists may have different licenses.

Slideshows For Fire Pix

Watch My Slideshow

Favourites Slideshow - pictures I like created by other people.

The original idea comes from sylloge. I borrowed this idea to showcase my favourite pictures. To create a slideshow for my work I created a tag called 'myslideshow' and added it to some pictures.

I am thinking of permanently adding these links to my blog. What do you think?

The Gnome's Home


Sanga by tamaki.

"The River inside the Mountain" made me think of 'In the Hall of the Mountain King' (part of 'Peer Gynt' by Grieg). Then I thought: 'Dwarves like more angular construction that is underground'.

Gnomes in roleplaying games and some myths are more likely to live on the surface. If so, then this is a perfect home for them. It is earthy in both shape and substance.

This would be a good model for someone experimenting in 3D because of the simple, yet powerful, shapes.


A Temple Of Blue


Blue by Drift Words.

A place to pray for inspiration.

It would be a great 3D project.

Faith


Key West Sunset by webmink.

Tomorrow will come.

The Divine Mystery


...holy font. by underbunny.

There is something mysterious and mystical about colour. Stained glass expresses this so well.

This would be interesting to model in 3D.

3D Or Not?


This amazing picture by quas caught my eye.

Model Samples


Model Samples by firemind.


This composition was made to test different models in Vue 3.

  • The moon is a simple sphere plus texture.

  • The papyrus plant and boat are included with Vue 3.

  • The sword is an imported Poser 3 OBJ file. The handle is 'oak' and the rest is 'rusted bronze'.

Introduction

Welcome to Fire Pix. This is my photo and art blog. I will use this site to display and discuss some of my artwork and photos. I may also comment on computer programs, and online art that I like. This blog will be a companion to my Flickr photoblog and Firemind - my personal blog.
