A notable phenomenon has been noticed by www.BlenderNews.org, while contacting potential nominees for the Render of the Week Award or artists for 'Architectural/Product Visualization in Blender' series. Some of the creators of amazing or professional quality renders turned out to be young people still in high school! It turned out that this is not an isolated incident. Should they and their works be dismissed, since the Render of the Week Award or the 'Product Visualization in Blender' series or is for adults who can "afford" to work as freelancers and studios?
Recently some of them have been introduced in an article entitled "Blender Whiz." It has been decided that "Blender Whiz." will be featured as a series, whenever such talented young artists are discovered. Studios and directors, keep your eyes on these young talents as your potential future employees!
So, it is with great pleasure that www.BlenderNews.org introduces to you Matias Raassina for his work "Man's Reach Exceeds His Imagination."

Title: "Man's Reach Exceeds His Imagination"
Genre: Concept Art
Renderer: Cycles

Final Render:

Matias's Comments
About Me: 
I am a 17-year-old boy from Finland, I am currently a student. I've been doing Blender artworks as a hobby since 2010. 

About "Man's Reach Exceeds His Imagination:" 
The project was heavily influenced by the 2006 movie "The Prestige", and especially by the electric machine part. I actually took a three week brake from the project due to school stuff, so it took about seven weeks from start to finish. I am pretty happy with the result, but of course there is always something to fine-tune.
