Michael Oswald is awesome! I like his work!
Wow!! Great stuff. Love the Gold rush
One thing is sure: you like woman :)
He MIGHT even like MORE than one!
Visually stunning! I have known of Michael Oswald’s work for a few years now and feel that he is one of the true master’s of Photoshop.
I like his style, obvious he is an amazingly talented artist!!!
Great Job indeed :)
One of these images was shown in a tutorial here, if i am not mistaken. AmalgaMATE 2… anyone can help to find it ?
Thanks in advance :)
Amazing.
Apple? I’m pretty sure that’s a young Uma Thurman. :D
The digital art is amazing! but this guy have serious problems with chicks … lol
I agree, it wouldn’t be so obvious if they didn’t ALL portray women as sex objects. And I don’t quite know what to make of the title “crocodile tears”. But yeah…. Show a little more diversity in your portfolio dude!
I like your female skull avatar.
i agree with the problem thing.
But is he portraying women as objects, or is he portraying objects as women?
wow is amazing….
Awesome work! Great models… I’m assuming he uses models? If he doesn’t, then it’s even more awesome.
Ah yes he does… if you go to his website there are some BEFORE and AFTER images. Great work.
I have read before that he gets a lot of his models from Model Mayhem. It’s a great place to find models that you can use in a photo shoot for projects and things like that. Really impressive works!
To be honest this is the first time I hear about Michael Oswald but after seeing these great digital art examples I will remember him.
Really great quality! I am impressed
we need tutorial
wow i think all of this is amazing and i would love to be able to do something as good as this even if it was half as good as this
HHHHHHH!!!!
Wow…Great stuff! I have to agree Gold Rush and the “We Can Do IT” remake are my favs!
Oh I love the Mosh ones, Tinker toy… *I think is my favorite. Yeesh, he is good.
Wow – he’s awsome :) Wow Wow Wow
Soul Searching is genius.. not to mention the others are also fantastic
just outstanding very inspirational work !!!
My favorite is Apple. :) I think it is beautiful. It’s my new desktop background!
Amazing talent!
I can only dream of such talent. I guess we all have different talents anyway.
amazing work, amazing mind and amazing soul of digital art.
I stumbled upon this artist and I love his work. And I am very jealous too, I wish I was that good!!
Great talent used to render the banal wet dreams of a teenage boy ad nauseam.
Excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Objectifying women and reducing them to sex objects may be deemed excellent by some horny teenagers, but lets face it – soul-less robotons about as “excellent” as blow-up dolls. GROW UP!
You hit the nail on the head, Guest. This is totally and utterly boring. Fetishising aesthetically pleasing images of women – what’s new? This “artist’s” work is glorified porn.
SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUPERB
Wow, these are truly amazing. They must have taken such a long time to do. A true artist’s work.
Am I the only one who finds this all a bit creepy?
i like his work but i think he might have an unhealthy liking for mannequins.
Amazing artwork, truly inspirational and just about has me loading Photoshop CS5 right now but unfortunately I am being summoned to bed to watch a movie so I suppose that will have to wait haha.
Soul Searching is awesome
Amazing and wonderful. Some creepy in the good way. Very talented, master!
great work, but someone needs to get out more and maybe get a real girlfriend
Most incredible artworks I’ve ever seen. Very modern.
Great work!!
I liked all of the images in this post.
Great eye.
Just the fact that there are so many diverse comments prove that this artist has succeeded at evoking emotion from the viewer. Total success.
or you can find tutorials that allow me to do that?
Yo man!! they’re totally AWESOME!! Detailed on lighting works,
and the humanbots that you made.. NICEEEEE!!
You Recommended as my reference and will be shared to my designer community
Keep on the #greatartwork dude!!
@reizasoelaeman
great work, just too bad there are so many repressed teenaged sexual tension paintings…i mean, the female figure is beautiful, but some of it’s a step above porn, or the cover art for it…
