Antisuper Apparition of Melissa

























This is a digital image from 1999 - it's a combination of a rendered figure from a 3D software called "Poser", a rendered background from another 3D software called "Bryce", and a digital photo of my wife, all collaged together with Photoshop.

The title "Antisuper" refers to the way the figure was created - by playing with the "superhero" knob in Poser, which bulks up the figures to heroic proportions. Putting in a negative value - especially a big one - makes the software go a bit crazy, and the figures explode into fantastic and unpredictable shapes, like the "mushroom cloud" shape here.

(At least, it used to work that way - I don't think it still does, which is a shame.)
