Last two days I was over my head with work, and missed updating MOIllusions. Still, my work involved some “soon-to-be-announced” gifts for you – just in time for Christmas. Stay tuned and expect something big really soon! In the mean time, I give you Guido Daniele’s new Handimals! Before you check these, make sure you’re already familiar with his work. Browse Hand Painted Animals Part I and Part II before you proceed. This time Guido painted more animals, and I must agree they look incredibly real. There are so many to choose from, I still haven’t managed to publish them all. Be sure to visit the artist’s website for more. Here is a short bio of Guido:
“Guido Daniele started working as hyper-realistic illustrator, in co-operation with major editing and advertising companies, using and testing different painting techniques. In 1990 he added a new artistic experience to his previous ones: using the body painting technique, he creates and paints models bodies for different situations such as advertising pictures, commercials, fashion events and exhibitions. Guido is most famous for his “Handimals”, created by secret body painting methods.”
Very Cool! Talk about some awesome talent. Anyone have an idea who the artist is who painted these “handimal” drawings?
OOPS I TAKE THAT BACK. I GUESS I DIDN’T READ THE THE OPENING STATEMENT BY VURDLAK. STILL COOL THOUGH.
what about the water mark in most pictures :)
the swan one is the best
I agree- it looks real!
those are great. i really love the 1st elephant and the dolphin. the artist has some serious skills!
Lx
These are amazing,
i can’t decide which i like best, because they are all really kool!!
xo
THE PARROT IS SICK
I am really glad that Guido has seen fit to plaster his crappy logo all over the later images. Maybe he wouldn’t be so paranoid if he hadn’t greedily snatched the devil’s coin for his previous work.
what?
Hey if there was a cow in there, i’d say holy cow.
Cool
wouhw
very interesting gotta love it!
And you didn’t notice the massive watermarks on 3/4 of the pictures either?
I love these! They’re really cool. I would never be able to paint anything like this. :)
not realy an illusion but still amazing!!
My favorite is the elephant… it looks really cool
very cool
HOLY COW THAT IS STUNNING STUFF!
NUMBER 3 this is amazing!!
Lovely!:) Put in a great order too! because when i saw the elephant one i was like oh yeahr! you can use a finger for the trunk… I think my favourite is the Dolphin
The second elephant one was cool too as it was striking :) and big/close up.
I don’t quite understand the very last one though?
and @KEVIN – yeah, also most of the images are watermarked so i dunno how you didn’t spot that either.
I am a massive fan of Guido Daniele, this is really incredible art.
Wonderful, I really like that second elephant!
Very, very nice
wow these are so cool!
the closest i’ve ever gotten to doing something remotely like that is drawing the little face and making the mouth move. (with the thumb) :D
Yes, very beautiful. Even the backgrounds are lovely. I think the eyes are what make them so realistic, all bright and reflective.
3rd? go me if yes!! the art is great but its not an illusion really coz i mean its just paint on a hand.nuthing hidden
Wow! Very Cool!
I really enjoy this type of illusion.
COOL :D reminds me of shadow hands-snakes, rabbits etc. but this is so much cooler!
Very Cool !!
Those paintings are great, totally awesome. But the less than subtle watermark somehow spoils it for me. Do you really have to put such a huge stamp straight over your wonderfull pictures, Guido?
amazing stuff….
As a tattoo flash artist…i do understand the NEED for the infamous watermark..it ensures that if someone wants the art un-marked…that they PAY for it. the internet for pictures has all but ruined the world of art on paper..and i begrudge NOTHING to the artists that make sure that their art work remains theirs…
talk about having too much time on your hands
I realy like the horse
but there all gr8
COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!
wow, that is mind boggling!
Wow some of those don’t look like a hand at all! Cool!
photoshop
Coolio.
Awsome.
wow how did they do it…..
they arent illusions, but they sure are awesome
THOSE ARE COOOOOOOOL
the best one is the white goose and the eagle
my favorite one is the cheetah but the duck is the most realistic
For me, the goose one is the best but I personally like the cheetah & the dolphin.
amazing!!! Great ide
its really cool how they painted there hands to look like anamals
Is that his hand?!?!?!?!
