Description
Narcissism.
In the 19e century, it was Dr. Sigmund Freud who used the term "narcissism". He refers to the Greek mythological character Narcissus who had turned down so many love advances that he was punished to be in love with his own mirror image.
Every human being has a bit of narcissism; the amount has a relation to his/her happiness. People who don't like themselves are most of the time not satisfied with their situation or under value their own importance.
People with a high value of narcissism have more trouble to keep their social network alive, because they are often busy with themselves and have less attention for other people.
So far my lesson in psychiatry, I'm no doctor, just a 3D artist.
In this series I try to visualize narcissism with my regular characters and of course it should be a nice image too.
Enjoy the series. The persons on the left sides are not actually there. The sequence is more or less random. Not each of my characters has the same amount of narcissism as you may notice. GRIN.
"Jack, what do you know about your narcissism?"
"Make way. I don't love this guy; he is just my friendly ego."
Will be continued.

You must love yourself before you can love others...
An interesting concept
And according to the classical philosophy each thing has two opposite sides. Great idea and realization, they look like two sides of the same person!
Lol @ Hank - Well done & funny looking image!
Excellent image !!!!!
This will be very interesting !!! Jack looks great and excellent pose.As for my own narcissism I would think I am the only person I can rely on LOL!!
Looks like you are touching at the mystery of the twin souls (which, in my opinion, ist the entire opposite of what are identical twins). Great
One happy and one mean, love their expressions!
Great idea! Let's have a look at this series!!!! ;-)
