Deedee is a long-time fan of fantasy art, and counts Boris Vallejo and Chris Achilleos as her earliest favourite artists. She was first attracted to the idea of creating 3D artwork back in 2003 when she first started posting art online, and through a rather convoluted and accidental means, stumbled across Poser while trying to find something else entirely.
Having tried many of the low end hobbyist packages in the past few years, her preferences are Carrara Pro for modelling, Vue Studio for landscapes and rendering, and Poser Pro for figure posing and animation.
Her influences include vampires, bad 80s horror and fantasy films, heavy metal and the works of Poe, Lovecraft & their contemporaries.
