It was quite a shock to hear that Shado had passed away. His wife had reached out to us to let us know. I have sent her and family the sincere condolences of myself and all the staff here at Renderotica. He will be missed greatly. Rest easy Shadoman. RangerRabbit Renderotica Management

I’m really sorry to hear this news. Just a little while ago, he shared in the forum that he was back and on the road to recovery after his surgery. Even though I didn’t know him very well, we chatted a few times in the forums, and he always seemed like such a kind person. He will be missed! Lighting the way to the dark side

Its always sad to hear when someone has passed, whether they be well known or not, Shadoman was here when i just got to know this great place, and we did share some messages, he was a kind dude and wonderful artist, as we all get older we all come to the thought of leaving this Earthly place i hope we can all find ourselves in that great big artist play room in the heavens some day, Bon Voyage Dennis

Sad to hear this news. Shado is a legend. Condolences to his who are remaining behind, and to those who enjoy his works. May he reign in his next next phase of being. Wherever there is a shadow... He'll be there in spirit. Hats off to ya Dennis.

Heartbreaking news, Dennis was a true gentleman and good friend for 25 years. "The higher and more advanced the civilisation, the more perverted the sex" Aldous Huxley

Very sad news. We had some pleasant email exchanges, he was a kind guy and I enjoyed his comments when he was more active. One of the "Old Ones".

Shadoman was a true inspiration for me and his stories showed me that creativity in this media was not only possible but artful.
I am sorry he is gone and wish his family many condolences. Remember the good times, remember him, and he isn't really gone.

I had great respect for him. It would be a lie to say the first time he messaged me I felt honored, like I'd finally made it. It's devastating to hear of his passing and my heartfelt wished to both his widow and his family. I know he's in a better place now and no longer hurting.
Good speed, my friend.

Ah man....
Dennis was the one who helped me so much in my early days with encouragement and advice that was invaluable. This is enough to make a stone cry. The Curator of Downworld.
