The Design

About Cancer Assassin Илюстрацията

Художникът се опита да създаде портрет на драматичния момент, когато хватката на смъртта на Natural Killer T-клетка преодоля защитните сили на раковите клетки, запомняйки момент, който човечеството желае. Цитотоксичните Natural Killer T клетки са ракови убийци, които предизвикват раковите клетки да претърпят програмирана клетъчна смърт, известна като апоптоза. Природните Т-клетки-убийци разпознават специфични места на повърхността на раковите клетки, наречени антигени, свързват се с тях и освобождават биохимични протеини, които образуват пори в мембраната на раковата клетка и специфично индуцират раковата клетка да се разруши.

Unique Properties
People fighting cancer often want to know how to visualize fighting back. This is one visualization capturing the moment of cancer cell death, and the victory of the body's natural immune defenses, Natural Killer T cells. An entire branch of medical research focuses on amplifying and strengthening Natural Killer T cells' effectiveness.

Created using Cinema 4D, a 3D modeling program, and Photoshop, on a Mac.
Design Challenge
The artist sought to create a portrait of the simple but dramatic moment the death grip of the Killer T cell overcomes the cancer cell's defenses.
Research
The artist researched the morphology of Killer T cells, cancer cells, and Killer T cells and cancer cells in a death struggle, by studying electron micrographs and written research. She then created 3D models of a Killer T cell, cancer cell, fracture explosion, and cell debris using Cinema 4D, on a Mac. The rest of the digital painting was completed by hand work of drawing and painting in Photoshop using a stylus and tablet, on a Mac.
Inspiration
The artist is a certified medical illustrator working in the advertising and marketing of the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. Self promotional work created for clients, and prospective clients, is a chance to promote the artist's creativity, artistry and storytelling skills in visual science.

The project was in development for two weeks at the artist's studio in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida, USA.
Operation Flow
