 Its been over 13 years since I submitted "Eating Corn"



I decided it was time to try it again. This time with a strawberry, a new camera and an attempt at greater detail. I added cheeks and a tongue made with Play-Doh and sprayed water to imitate saliva. Although the image is not as symmetrical as the Corn shot I think it looks more realistic. We don't use gold as much to make crowns and bridges. Dentistry has changed quite a bit since I graduated dental school 38 years ago!

I love this. SOOOO realistic.

Good to know I can use Play-Doh if I ever lose my tongue :)

Ahhh, I missed your username change and mistook you for a relatively new member. I thought your work looked familiar. :) Great job on this! Congrats!


Yes, thank you. Just felt like I needed a more representative username.

Is this an artificial model? Can't imagine otherwise
Cool idea though

This will have to be #1 for the level of difficulty and the overall execution. I'm looking forward to seeing the size of your camera.
