Turn athletes into greek Gods (Tim Tadder)

[petersweden]

Hi

Any ideas how to achieve this look?

Dunk the models in baby oil and then use the plastic wrap filter?

Best regards


Peter

Use those as a reference, but I did something like this, and I did it with pen tool to create sharp edges of highlights, and then painted with white, or DNBed accordingly.

P.S. Cristian Girotto retouched these ,so you may ask him directly

This kind of effect was used for a Naomi Campbell photoshoot a few months back:

It was basically some sort of liquid acrylic-latex sort of thing, most likely sprayed on her skin.
