Well, we got our new section for Collaborations... Now Maya and C4D or Poser or Bryce or 2D or Music or written arts can all come together and people of different disciplines can work with others who use other programs and make different types of art..

Pictures you would never be able to see are possible and only waiting for people to get together and make art together.. in doubles, triples or large team efforts. They all can be represented here...

In the last few pictures I saw were ones made by more than one person.. I have noticed a large view and comment count on them...To me it seems obvious that many are curious about these types of works and that they are in General very wonderful and unique pieces...I myself am always curious to see what child comes from differing talents...almost always it is more than the sum of its parts..

Have you not wanted to see what you could add to a picture of another and thought how great it would be to see a combination of both your talent and that of another together in one piece of artwork...I have on many occasion..It's part of the reason I allow the use of any of my worlds to be used for backgrounds.. I am not a great 3D Character artist but I can sure shake up a good world to put one in...and I love to see them populated by interesting characters and props....

In trying to solve my urge to see my works used I have found I am not alone in wanting this as proven by the forum response to this subject of collaboration...In the next few weeks I am going to make a series of worlds with POVs and color ranges that will be easy to use as backgrounds, hopefully 20 or so... I will then load them to the freebies section by hosting them on my site and putting a list of direct links to these pictures in the freebies section...these pictures will be for use on collaborations and are free for your use....I am also urging any other terrain artists to contribute some works for this purpose if you wish, like i do, to work with othrs on combined works..

So keep your eyes open for some art from this section...DW

this is very generous of you - I am sure that many artists will want to use your excellent worlds as backgrounds. I hope to see many people taking advantage of this wonderful opportunity to share their talents, and that the Collaborators Gallery and forum will soon be the most popular places to be. :gallery: :clap: :clap:

I too am very excited about this opportunity and thank you very much for initiating this and getting it off the ground. I can't wait to see what people come up with and also to try out some things of my own.

As I comment the works daily I am going to ask people about how they feel about collaborating with another artist and ask them who they would choose to work with.. I let them know they can PM me with anyanswers or questions and I am open to helping ask another artist on their behalf if they are to shy... Whatever it takes to get this off the ground... I figure in a weeks time I should cover many of them...When I see works by some of the folks here I almost automatically picture who would match the style in a positive way.. character artists with scene makers.. all of that.. so please bear with me for the week as I explore the response to this idea.....DW

Excellent idea. I love how you have grasped this with both hands and taken off full pelt :cuddle: With you behind the venture, how could it possibly fail to be anything but a winner. :headbang:
