I was browsing a few sites and came up on this image. After reading about the artist that did it and how its all done i thought you might be interested in it... Now lets see who has a good artistic eye on here, tell me is this 2d or 3d and how was it done..

Should be easy for those of you that have been around the art world for a while..click click

Looks like very good 2D, but it's just a guess. Haven't click-clicked.

It's a 3D tiger in front of a glass plate of some sort......

he he...

aprilgem, don't give in..you are on the right track.

tom, its behind glass..the picture of the tiger is anyway

Sorry...  the 3D tiger is behind the glass.....   

If thats not the way it was done.... then the glass reflection is a handycap and making it hard to detect the method.....

super imposed? 2d. either shot within on the same frame, or shot on different frames, and super imposed. or worked on in photoshop

if 3 d..then i'd say the tiger is 3d, and the glass is 2d.

The tigers ears aren't back(down)far enough for the pose IMHO. They looked like they are painted too(2d?). I could be wrong though. The glass flare throws me off a little. Fun to guess.

I can see half a reflection of someone in the glass - looks like they're holding a camera up to take the photo.....

It looks like a photo of a 2D painting, printed on a board with a satin finish.

**gillbrooks** is correct there is a reflection of someone taking the picture..it was taken in a gallery of the tiger picture.

ICM, was correct in the aspect it is a 2d painting.

The painting was done by air brush by a Australian artist by the name of Sue Osborn, if you are interested in looking at some of her other work click on the link provided.

The Page name for this image is= "Tiger.Exercise.Acrylic on MDF.JPG

The material used was MDF Board (check the link) with a grain.

I missed on the part that it was printed.

There are some print/frame shops that will print your graphics on textured boards, some that even resemble oil paintings with brushstroke texture. A bit pricey if I remember correctly.

Cool Medium airbrushing!!

I find that interesting, after reading what you posted ICM, i looked at the site link again i posted but this tme i paid attention to the bottom of explorer when i place my curser on an image.
Thing is though, with air brush you could paint on MDF.

Whee-hee LOL!

Talking of photo's of tigers - here's one of a painting that I have hanging in my stairwell. Oils on Daler board - painted ummmmmmmmmmmm about 20 years ago when I was a lot younger than I am now ;-)

It's a photograph of a tiger, photoshopped to an inch of it's life, with faux glass pane and frame made to look like either a "low reflection glass" glass matte over it.  Other than the base image of the tiger being a photograph, it's all photoshop to my eye.

mboncher, its not..its airbrush painting on mdf then put in a frame to hang in her gallery.

LOL... shows what I know. ;c)

I'd say it's painted, and then photographed with glass in between.

oh crap, the answer was given already :-P
