Mike has been creating what he calls "CyberGirls" since 1994. Everybody uses the term cybergirls now, but he could may have been the one to actually coin the phase...after all, 1994 s ancient in computerese. Mike's Cybergirls are cobbled together from various sources. He keeps an extensive picture-file, eyes, faces, bodies, legs, dresses, props, backgrounds etc...it's like a "parts" shop for building a whole new character. He also borrows from his kits and his own photography. Then he pieces parts together like a modern-day Dr. Frankenstein and digitally airbrushes them together seamlessly.He almost never markets the resultant images...to him they are just play...a way to come up with new characters. Below are some examples.
