WHO AM I?

My name is Marina Nystad Andersen.( I have changed my name this summer, so many people know me as Mariann Nystad )and I'm 39 years old and live in Norway.I hope my english is so good that you understand me:-)

I'm a single mother of 3 children. 2 girls who is 16 and 19 years old, and a som who is 6 years old...

October 2004, I just stumled into renderosity, and saw all the nice 3D art there.

I didn't know this art existed at all! From that moment I was hoocked:-) I first used the Dazstudio(freeware) to make a picture, but after a month or two, i discovered Poser. AndI have used Poser since then,.

As a Norwegian it was difficult to learn all this, because all the stuff was in english. I think I spent 100 hours in 3 weeks to learn it. I didn't gave up:-).

I always admired the people I bought the character packages of, and said to myself, that the next step was to create my own characters for sale. May 2005 it was a reality, and from then, I became a vendor at renderosity.

In the beginning I used Victoria 3 and Aiko 3. But now I just use Victoria 4 and Aiko 4.Also just called V4 and A4.

You maybe wonder what that Victoria and Aiko is?

Well.. Those are the base figures i need to use. It's those I change head and body on, to make them look different.

I will explain that in a tuturial. I have a tuturial you can look at, to see what I do to makeV4 and A4 change to a character package I have made.

I'm not an expert, but help as good I can to those who need help. I want to help people get started in this, so they don't need to struggle as much as I did...

So just send a mail if it's something you want me to explain.. Hope you enjoy your visit here, and hope to see you back

Best regards Marina
