Process




Photographing Emily on location, and one of the resultant photographs below.


Early stage alien sculpture, showing copper and wire armature. I use a wide variety of materials and processes to construct the creatures, buildings, alien ships and prop weapons, many of which are created for specific photographs.


Top: Completed alien photographed in front of a monochromatic screen. Because the figure is green I chose a yellow background this time. Bottom: The finished composite photograph #cr33porBCn. The monster has been digitally placed into the scene and carefully blended with the environment. It’s critical that the lighting and shadows on the miniature figure match those in the original photograph.

The constituent elements of Black Dragon.
