"We originally approached Glen as we were interested in using one of his excellent models in a technology demo we were developing. It turned out that the specific model we requested didn't exist in a form that was immediately useful to us so we were prepared to be disappointed. Glen was excited by the project though and created a new version of the model in very short time that was perfect for our needs. I was very impressed by how quickly he was able to generate such high quality work and also with his willingness to participate in a project that had some very unique requirements. The results of this collaboration can be seen in the Subsurface Scattering demo on ATI's demo page here

"Over the past several months, I have had the opportunity and pleasure to work closely with Glen on various projects. Glen has proved to be an enormous asset. His ability to take a project from concept to realization with confidence and ease has been confirmed. Glen is a rare individual blessed with superior skills both in digital imagery (2D & 3D) as well as traditional art.
He clearly has a bright future in whatever endeavor he might chose. As a result and with no reserve, I would give him the highest recommendation possible. If you'd like to discuss his attributes in more details, please don't hesitate to contact me.

"My first meeting with Glen Southern was a testimony to his creative qualities and his ability to interpret a clients requirements. During "The Briefing" I wasn't entirely convinced that I had his full attention throughout. I couldn't have been more wrong. Before I had concluded my presentation he had mocked up a concept on his laptop that was progressed right through to a more than satisfactory conclusion. I wouldn't hesitate therefore to recommend SouthernGFX and plan on using them again at the earliest opportunity

Glen Southern has a comprehensive knowledge of digital art techniques and a high degree of talent to match. He also possesses a firm grasp of the features and techniques of ZBrush, the revolutionary graphic software. More significantly, he is able to communicate that knowledge to others on both a basic and advanced level. This is a skill that I have found invaluable when working on the book, Digital Fantasy Painting, for which Glen contributed several pieces of high quality materials and tutorials.

"I am glad that Glen let me embed his ZB images in my ZBrush book. Glen is one of the few artists who can truly master the revolutionary
2.5D drawing and sculpture tools in a creative manner with ZBrush.
He is a naturally-born ZBrush-style artist with subtle skills for his fantastic art, combined with inspiring traditional techniques for texturing and lighting, he makes his artwork a masterpiece a la mode. He is the Master of Pixol.

Glen is one of most talented digital artists you are ever likely to run across. His work done primarily with Pixologics ZBrush has been creating a sensation within the ZBrush community. Brilliant, masterful, awe-inspiring, a modern Michelangelo, are some of the common adjectives that arise each time a S O U T H E R N masterpiece is released. In this interview Glen reveals why he's chosen ZBrush as his Illustration tool of choice, offering insights into his work processes, and discusses his future projects.

To say that Glen Southern is one of the finest digital artists I have ever had the privilege to meet would be an understatement. I have met, and worked with, some of the best in the field and Glen is definitely one of the top five artists I know. Glen has helped bring ZBrush to the masses and his awe inspiring artwork has made artists everywhere wish to learn this innovative new program. ZBrush is not where Glen's talent ends, however, as he is able to quickly learn any graphics application that is laid before him. In just a few short weeks he was able to learn Expression Tool's flagship product Shade Professional and write a comprehensive review of the package. The artwork he created while writing the review was so beautiful that Expression Tools asked if they could use it in future promotional materials.

Glen has created many logo graphics for In Depth Arts and I have always found him to be able to produce visually stunning work at very short notice. Often he creates the artwork with very little creative guidance from myself (sometimes just a concept) and I have not been disappointed once. I truly believe that Glen will be looked upon by his peers as one of the most talented digital artists of our time. He is an innovator, a teacher, and above all a friend.

Recently I became a Client of Glen Southern, and handed him a rather large and detailed project. Ever since the beginning Glen has been an absolute pleasure to work with, walking me through the steps, his ideas and designs.

Glen not only involved me with the project and catered to my needs, I was also included on in the process wherever possible.

Needless to say the first artwork has turned out phenominal and I; Not only am one very happy and more than satisfied client, however I have a clearer understanding of Glens professionalism, and have taken some knowledge away with me that I can use in my own study of the field and can apply to my own work.

Glens talent is only matched by his genuine passion for the artwork he creates. This unique blend contributes to some of the most amazing artwork I've ever seen. Period.
