I came across an amazing set of images created using 3d modeling software. The artist created 3d models of some famous women and did a wonderful job. I've seen more photorealistic renders, but it's rare to see renders modeled so accurately from real people.

Models include Jessica Alba, Alessandra, Salma Hayek, Gisele, Adriana and Natalia Vodianova.

Looks like most of the images were further improved using Photoshop, but there are examples of straight renders. I can't even imagine how long it took the artist to create such authentic models.

I think you have to register (free) to view the images, but especially if you are interested in computer graphics, it's well worth it. It's one of the top 3d graphics communities with an amazing gallery of user submitted images.

I once saw a piece on tv on a company which is specialized in 3D models of people. They had a device that made perfect 3D model of a face in a matter of minutes.

wow, that's really nice

when I first saw this thread, for some weird reason, my frist thought was realdolls .. you know those sex dolls that are all life like and they're like $6000 a pop!? I could save up for a doll that looks exactly like Adriana

That was the first thing that popped in your head?

I like the way your mind works

the faces are beautifully done, i can tell how hard it would be to match elements to it tho. great job by the people

I just saw this... Natalia Vodianova (warning.. "photorealistic" nudity) and I found it freaky.

looks like a test dummy or something

it looks like she pregnant or something .. it's freaky

maybe she is :shock: ( I just blew you mind didnt I )

... no maybe

i like her almost more here than in real (am not a great fan of her, but i think this is great job ) http://www.renderosity.com/viewed.ez?galle..._key=1148891492

I think that Jess here is very well done

WOW!!

this is like the same technology they use for final fantasy the movie right? its pretty realistic...maybe somewhere in the distant future, this would be the actresses...no more humans...i think it'd be cheaper too!! :p
