http://www.sarahjestin.com/feedbacklists.htmThese are very realistic renderings of people. I don’t know the name of the artist, ’cause I don’t read russian, but… wow! And the size of some of them is mind-boggling.
Caution: some are nude.

http://www.sarahjestin.com/feedbacklists.htmthats Ron Mueck!
he’s amazing! there’s a loong video on how he makes those:

(beware of lenght, but a MUST watch)
its quite an amazing process, even if most of the figures are to realistic for me (never thought I’d say this *g*) in the sense of constant repetition.
What was also pretty cool in the video was to hear that he paints the molds from the inside with translucent slightly tinted glaze. Thats the way how he got the fingers (especially the nails) and also the skin to look so incredibly amazing.
I know you say one can never achieve “complete art”, but he with his human portraits has in my opinion reached the absolute perfection.I wanna see his works IRL still. Especially the big boy.

Yeah, I’ve seen some of his stuff before. There are one or two other artists, I can’t come up with the names, but I remember seeing their stuff in an art class a few years ago, that do similar ultra-realism with human figures, though they usually clothe them.
those statues are impressive in person. they were on display at the national gallery of modern art in dc a few years ago. my bf and i spent so much time looking at the details. (but not all of the images on that link were in the show)
OMG!!!!! thats AWESOME!! thankyouthankyouthankyou for posting that! i miss good art! i’ll watch the video next! what incredible detail! i am a detail freak so that is just the hottest honking stuff to me! imagine if he did anthro figures! 😯 squee! it would be like a living dream, holy freekin cow! glee! GLEE! i love it! the nice thing is thyat it looks like he really sculpted it, not just pulled a mold off of a live human, like alot/way too many people are doing these days! this made my cockadoodlin’ night! 😀
