This Image was created for the CGSociety.org "Master & Servant" challenge.

Programs used: Lightwave 3D & Photoshop.

I created this image not as a knock against religion, but as a warning against blind faith and taking anything at face value. I believe in questioning and learning as much as possible about any given subject. We were given an intellect. Lets use it.

The story: Once, he had been a highly respected man of God, spreading his word to believers and non-believers alike. After an incident that left several of his followers dead, he was sentenced to a mental hospital until he was deemed stable enough to re-enter society. Nobody truly believed he would ever see the outside world again. An angel came to him in a dream telling the priest that God would set him free from this Hell to save the sinners of the world. That night, a fire broke out in the kitchen of the hospital and in the confusion, he slipped out of the building and found refuge in an abandoned church. Sinners surrounded him. One by one, he began to "send them on their way" and placed their lifeless bodies in the pews of the church. He and his true master now preach to the departed congregation.
