A belated sad day...

I know its kind of old news but it still hit pretty hard. So today I found out on a 3d vending site that one of my favorite vendors has passed away...now, I'm not going to disgrace them by saying their name here (you'll figure it out easily enough if you don't already know).

I only mention it because it brought up something that I think of now and again which is about all the great 3DX artists I've known of in the past decade that have come and gone in much the same way. Some cases I know they are still among the living, others I don't know if they have actually passed away or not, but they no longer publish work and that's close enough.

Some of my favorites,

Svarog's sfxxxplace

This was the first site I stumbled upon with 3DX! such a great amount of images full of awesomness. The man was way beyond his time with crazy situations and if you were tired of reading all the odd story lines then you could just watch the animations he made of everything. Fantastic!

 

 

Urkel's Monsters and girls

Another one of the greats whose site I patroned was Urkela, no animations but the comic style images where the shit, this was the guy I got my start from by asking him all the need to know questions I needed to know. Truly, the 3DX world is a lonely place without his work filling it up...

 

 

Spike

Now, I know this guy is still around, but I mention him because he doesn't post work anymore...its too bad too because he had what I thought would be a great nitch all to himself in the fantasy realm, but I'm still hoping he comes back someday. Too bad blogger shut his blog down :.(

 

 

Davo's Beyond Bent



Also still around, This guy at one time had four sites running at the same time! His store site, and three comic sites, insane...Davo was another one of my early mentors, his art wasn't as crisp as Urkel's but what it lacked visually, it made up for in creativity and plot depth. I figure he's more confy being the vendor of choice for most 3DXers.

(*NOTE* I take no credit for these images, I only show them to give an idea of what these guys made.)



 

I could go on with this list for a while, but I wont, cause I'd like to hear from you all. Whom where some of your favorites that no longer produce their 3D eye candy?!?!

July Upda...Wait...Its August?!?! Already!

Ok...so a long time ago YmomY once said I had the worst luck. At the time, I just laughed it off, but now I'm really beginning to think she was right. If you live in the U.S. like me then you know there was no place to escape the heat waves across the land in June and July, that is until the rains came; and with rain, came lightening.

To make a long story short (too late!) my house was struck and my electronics got F.U.B.A.R.ED! Luckily I still have my smartphone...great back to this thing again, man I hate intangible letter keys!

Anyways, I hate posting without any work to show for it so here is a pic of Semira I uploaded back in June, but just kept putting off posting it... hope ya'll like her!
