Faces of history: Ancient Egypt

The faces of the pharaohs

This is a visual project aimed at capturing the faces of the ancient past. I am a freelance illustrator using 3D digital graphics to create portraits of the great personalities of history combining research into the art, archaeology and mythology of Ancient Egypt. I use measurements taken from skeletal and mummified remains and/or contemporary artistic representations of the individual subjects, clothing and details are researched thoroughly to be as historically accurate as I can make them.
