Incredible work. By looking at the above photo you would think it was a vintage snapshot. Michael Paul Smith uses 1/24th scale diecast models and sets them up to photograph with natural backgrounds. Check out his Flickr slideshow.

I shot all these Eagles on Friday. Going back on Monday to have another go at them. There were 18 eagles in all. The juveniles outnumber the adults 2 to 1. The reason why most the images are pointed in the same direction is due to the fact that the wind was blowing from the north east with the sun somewhat low in the South.

You can read about the history of the books’ branding over at O’Reilly’s site, and discover that many of them are illustrated by Lorrie LeJeune, an employee first hired to do corporate sales.

The stunning portfolio of Masha Gubar will make you reconsider what “vector illustration” is supposed to look like. Also at www.limkis.com

How would Mario’s arch-enemy look like, if he would be real? A Bowser Redesign painted completely in Photoshop.

Like Pixeloo I also wanted to use Photoshop. But I didn’t wanted to use any Photos. I just wanted to paint the whole thing. More

From being a traumatised and unrecognised dyslexic child, he is now emerging as the most globally celebrated micro-miniaturist of all time and is literally capable of turning a spec of dust into a vision of true beauty. Willard can create a masterpiece within the eye of a tiny sewing needle, on the head of a pin, the tip of an eyelash or a grain of sand. Some are many times smaller than the fullstop at the end of this sentence.
