I really don't have any idea. My first guess would be lots of time.

Well...I have a couple of books by Bert, and he is very talented at getting a photo-realistic look from photoshop.
That is nuts, though.

Bert Monroy is the # 1 photo artist in the world who paints every thing in photoshop and his buddy is David Biedny who owns Idig inc which has done work on the invisable man and spawn and many more films. I had the pleasure of meeting David B at the Monterey Photoshop clinic a few years ago. David and Bert and Nathan Moody wrote Photoshop Channel Chops which every one should read.

Read the text at that link.... the shapes were all created in illustrator, than (apparently) filled in and colored in photoshop.
So, he's saying that none of this came from photos? If so... lordy...

I remember seeing this a few years back as a Guru award winner. Pretty amazing.

Holy Smokes!!
Man, I know how tideous it is to make something like that. I wander how much of it was referenced from a photograph?
What gets me is the file size of the final image. 1.7 Gigs!! I couldn't imagine my hunker computer trying to squeeze that out.
