Pioneers of Now - Competition by Wacom
"We need to be careful with this incredible thing called technology - in the wrong hands it can turn on us." This is my submission to the Wacom Pioneers of Now competition. This type of image is something that I have wanted to create for some time so, thanks for the reason to do it ! The brief mentioned that it had to be a self portrait so, I created a 3D model of my head using photographs and 123D Catch to generate the model. I then took it into 3DS Max, lighting and texturing with VRay to create the mood. In photoshop I layered the render elements to get the final effect as you see it. The detailed image shows that the face is made of digitally generated quad polgons - this relates to the concept of a human being digitised and used for the wrong reasons.
