A notable phenomenon has been noticed by www.BlenderNews.org, while contacting potential nominees for the Render of the Week Award or artists for 'Architectural/Product Visualization in Blender' series. Some of the creators of amazing or professional quality renders turned out to be young people still in high school! It turned out that this is not an isolated incident. Should they and their works be dismissed, since the Render of the Week Award or the 'Product Visualization in Blender' series or are for adults who can "afford" to work as freelancers and studios?
Recently some of them have been introduced in an article entitled "Blender Whiz." It has been decided that "Blender Whiz." will be featured as a series, whenever such talented young artists are discovered. Studios and directors, keep your eyes on these young talents as your potential future employees!
So, it is with great pleasure that www.BlenderNews.org introduces to you Quentin Le Duff for his work "My Steampunk World."

Quentin's Comments
About Me: 
My name is Quentin Le Duff. I've been using Blender since 6 years ago. I am young, I am just 16 but I love 3D and art and discovering new techniques. I started learning 3D thanks to the Blenderclan as well as the awesome Blender community.

About "My Steampunk World:" 
This is a personnal project to learn how to concept a ship. I have chosen the Steampunk because I find this style very interesting and I like the contrast between the past and the future. That was a big challenge and I learned a lot of things about the texturing.

This article was released, thanks to the kind permission of Mr. Gerard Le Duff--the legal guardian of Quentin.
