A member in another forum shared this this morning and I thought this bunch might enjoy this illustration also:

A completely digital work of art.

I saw this site too a couple of days ago. Almost unbelievable, isn't it?

The first picture looks incredibly realistic.

(I remember seeing this pictures sometime ago, but I have no idea where.)

Bob Barr · 02-22-2009, 12:29 PM

That's some incredible work. Doing the math, the artist worked on it for an average of about 45 hours per week for the eleven months it took to complete it. Amazing.

I've seen more realistic pictures.
Check this out:
This is created by a Japanese designer purely on photoshop

really cool.....

Doing photorealistic raster paintings or vector art is a double edged sword. Often people think it's a "manipulated photo" or they claim it's "not painterly" or that famous one "why don't you take a photo". All very tiring responses. Here's one more photorealistic painting of an aging water bomber. NOT A PHOTO, but a digital painting.

Thats some serious digital design talent.

Mind Blowing realism.

KristysKnots · 03-05-2009, 06:22 AM

wow!!!! those are amazing.

Taking each details can really make an interesting and quality product. Those images can be another promise for filming industry since they can actually create some backgrounds from mere computer graphics.

Nice pic with loads of clarity.

ZunuZunu · 03-05-2009, 11:36 PM

Unbelievably real ! Very nice.

when you look at it in a far it looks real.. but when you look closer you can see that it is done in photoshop.. nicely done..

Grayward · 03-06-2009, 05:31 PM

I'll throw one more in the mix of photorealistic digital art. This digital painting is referenced from my garden.

PerfectMoney · 03-06-2009, 05:49 PM

Evo'D · 03-06-2009, 11:44 PM

Thats really another level in photoshop!
I can vector in photoshop but create in detail scences id rather use 3d max.

Rchid29 · 03-09-2009, 05:46 AM

r they using photoshop? how? its very real...

Grayward · 03-09-2009, 10:03 AM

I think Bert Monroy uses Photoshop, not sure what the camera was drawn with. For the two I posted I used Xara vector and some paint brushes by Ulead.

Nice, that is awesome.

Demi · 03-29-2009, 08:12 PM

Well, the photos are really beautiful, they did a great job repainting and re-retouching it. The panoramic is just nice and great. Regards, Demi, [url removed]
