These 3D models from 'The Dark Knight Rises' look incredibly real


CGI has evolved drastically in recent years that it's becoming difficult to tell the difference between real life and renderings. Take, for example, these posters for The Dark Knight Rises. What you're looking at aren't photos, and no part of these images included Anne Hathaway. They're 100% 3D models created by Norwegian artist Per Haagensen. Her red lips, lush, auburn hair, firm breasts and fierce eyes are all computer-generated imagery.

The photorealistic models were digitally sculpted and textured using Zbrush and Lightwave, while the background art was done in Photoshop. The lighting, detail, and color grading are just insane! You can see more of Per's creations at his ArtStation page.

Hand-Painted Bags That Tell Your Story

  Most bags today look like they were produced by bored machines in a dimly lit factory. You can walk into any mall and find rows of identical leather (or “leather-like”) things, all claiming to express individuality. Ironically, though, they all look exactly the same. Then there’s Abby Verano . Her bags are not mere accessories; they’re declarations. Each one is hand-painted, touched by an actual human being with an imagination. Abby doesn’t just sell you something to put your wallet and smartphone in; she sells you a story, a vision, a little revolt against the tyranny of sameness.  Her tools are simple — brushes, acrylic paint, bags made from pandan leaves, and creativity. No duplicates. No clones. Just one-of-a-kind art pieces you can carry.

These illustrations by Hans Jenssen and Richard Chasemore explore the inner workings of some of the most famous Star Wars vehicles, from the AT-AT walker to the Millennium Falcon. The interesting part about these images is that they're completely hand drawn, with no help from a computer whatsoever. Prepare to marvel at these wonderful examples of sci-fi art!  [h/t: Galactic Academy ]
