Ron Mueck is an Australian born London-based photo-realist artist. His parents were toy makers. He worked on children’s television shows for 15 years before creating special effects for the 1986 film as Labyrinth.
He then started his own company in London, making models to be photographed for advertisements. Now he’s creating on his own and showcasing his work in places such as the Royal Academy, the Millennium Dome in London and the Venice Biennale.
These are really amazing. I can only imagine what they would be like up close and personal, towering right in front of you.
More imagines can be found at the Animation Nation thread.

They are amazing, yet they are so creepy. With art we can create anything and they become something. The question is of course who would buy it.
