Vegetable Salad - Alien Illusion

Till Nowak is German graphic designer with a great reputation especially recently since he created a digital "Salad" in Alien shape, made of vegetables. It is a tribute to HR Giger and Giuseppe Arcimboldo.

Making of a "Salad"

Till Nowak modeled twelve digital vegetables in 3ds Max using classical polygon modeling techniques. Photographs of fresh vegetables were used for the texturing process. Most of the vegetables started with a cylinder primitive and needed around 30 minutes of work. The modeling was easy – it was much more difficult to find the right places and orientations to build a monster with it.
