Salad Alien

German artist Till Nowak has created a masterpiece 'Salad', a digital image of Alien made out of vegetables. His tribute to HR Giger and Giuseppe Arcimboldo.' 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.
