The ‘Machine Dolls’ are very much like the ‘Baroque Nouveau’ cuties… very stylised/doll-like, which was exactly what I was going for, but these cuties are even more augmented than the ‘Cyber Nouveau’ girls…
… in fact these dolls aren’t even ‘human’ any more…
… they are beings created, by AI’s, in the image of ‘Humans’…
… they have gorgeous, synthetic faces…
… attached to glittering machine cores…
… and encased in precision-moulded alloys, energy fields, and spun diamond.
Gorgeous space angels…
… barely-clad in the latest nano-tech fashion…
… breathlessly eager to take on the universe…
… and all she holds (:
I thought I’d do some classic scifi images…
… like the ones that would have been on book covers in the 80’s…
… fabulous future girls…
… adrift in strange worlds and events.
After they have lived for a thousand years or so, the bodies of the Elite begin to succumb to entropy that no amount of bio-engineering can fix, more and more mutation effects them. They start to replace their decaying body parts with cybernetic parts…
… they begin to look less and less like humans, and more and more like machines…
… as another thousand years go by, their organic minds subtly change… even though they are still the minds of humans, they are no-longer human, they are transcendent. They begin to embrace their transcendence…
… turning themselves into gorgeous, humanoid art forms…
… and though vanity makes them keep a human visage…
… they are no longer human.
