Description

"Aaaa...tchu!" Usually you cannot see them... But that means nothing... Because if you were too close, well, they already got you. Being interested in virology, I cannot resist to realize such an image...! I tryed a lot to recreate a real virus in P5, and that's what I came up with: the viruses in this image are Rhinoviruses, which cause the 50% of common colds. Though somewhat far from their real aspect, I am quite satisfied the way they look... :P An infected person exhales billions of Rhinoviruses, everytime he breaths. With normal breathing they can arrive 20-30 cm far from the subject; 50-60 cm with active speaking, and up to 1-1,50 m with a sneeze. Atchu! :) Rendered in P5 (Firefly engine for the viruses, P4 render for everything else), postwork in PSP8. Bye! Da.Mc

This is great! I affirms why I have OCD about washing my hands all the time. Even when simply handling money, those miscroscopic little varmints can still go about their business making us sick. Maybe the hand-washing explains why I haven't had a cold or the flu in four years. Superb job on this. ~Steve~
