Photographer Fabien Nissels always has a model, now that he's constructed the "block man" for his series called Blocks. And he's fairly easy to pose, since he's made of disjointed blocks.
So, to make it short, I took my friend Johan (http://www.chezkatz.com) in the studio and we shot 4 views from each part of his body. We then printed everything and fixed the images on polystyrene blocks we had constructed. Once the blocks were all finished, we took my car and went shooting them in various environments. There is no photoshop cheating, our modular man really went to all these places and always asked for souvenir pictures, except maybe the one when he was on the toilets :)
