IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 


A man was exposed to some strange sort of radiation and is now shrinking
continiously. This is the moment
where he is so small that a simple spider is so big that it is a deadly foe and
he needs to fight for his
life with a needle he found.
Inspiration came from the idea that BIG is relative, and as a huge fan of the
films of Jack Arnold I created
this image that could be right from his movie "The Incredible Shrinking Man".


DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 


The man is a poser figure (what else), the rest is simple CSG. The hair for the
spider was created
with the Creative Studio plugin CineHair SE, which is really cool.
I scanned many textures for the sewing box to get it realistic. Unfortunately I
began too late to
refine everything, so this is not the best picture, but I simply had to submit
it because I liked
the idea so much !
