vette...photoshop or not?

MysteriousGT1 · 06-13-2005, 05:49 AM

if not then this is just plain wrong!

Kdawg207 · 06-13-2005, 06:35 AM

if it's real....the owner should be shot

if it's fake...the photoshopper should be shot

Baundy06 · 06-13-2005, 06:54 AM

Uhh... wtf? That exhaust... and the tails... and spinners...

elim · 06-13-2005, 06:58 AM

It certainly doesn't look like a photoshop to me.

Panacea · 06-13-2005, 10:01 AM

I am going to venture and say it's fake.

AMRAAM4 · 06-13-2005, 10:32 AM

I'm going to say it is real, because if you look at the paint on the backside where the tailights are, and then how it curves around under the red sidemarker....you can see they did a sh1t job matching it. The backside is a "smooth" dark navy color...the side of the car looks black.

Anyone realize the disaster on the side door is suppose to mimmick the early 50's Corvette door?

Mike3800 · 06-13-2005, 10:51 AM

There must be some kind of kit around, I saw a red Corvette on the highway that looked similar to this with the 50's door.

ndprunner22 · 06-13-2005, 10:52 AM

its fake, because if you look in the foreground their is a car that the camera is in.
the reflection of the car can be seen on the back quaterpanel of the vette but not the backend the reflection clearly stops on the backend.

just my .02

mr_eh · 06-13-2005, 11:01 AM

photoshop for numerous reasons

shadesofnight · 06-13-2005, 11:11 AM

This jumped out at me immediately.

mr_eh · 06-13-2005, 11:22 AM

well i'll tell you what bothers me about this, the front rim is too small in relation to the rear one, the reflection in the silver on the door is too vivid for a lighter color and it doesnt flow smoothly into the blue paint, i dont like how the bottom of the right rear bumper looks, the one thing i cant figure out tho is the exhaust, why are onlyt he middle two dirty... it doesnt make sense to copy and paste two of em and use the middle for dirty, so thats a little weird... the shadow under the exhaust and car is also ****ed up... and the tails? well the 2 on the right that do exhist stock are too close together, the middle two are out of sync horribly... and its obvious that the middle two were copy and pasted because it has the same reflections as the ones next to it, with the exception of a highlight on the one on the right...

i think the chrome around the license plate might be real (because the guy has no taste - not the chrome bars in the cabin), and the vent on the side looks weird too...`

AMRAAM4 · 06-13-2005, 11:51 AM

if this is fake gentlemen....tell me how they got the first 3 taillights on the left side of the car to reflect perfectly in the hood of the vehicle taking the picture

yep, and although Eh showed you can delete the reflection...it is a helluva lot harder to generate it there.

mr_eh · 06-13-2005, 12:46 PM

.... i'll admit that the reflection was pretty dead on on the hood, and photoshopping that would require some patience, so unless mysterious photoshopped it and told amraam to point that out in the thread, i'll think its real

not to mention about 90% of photoshoppers will forget to add one there when altering a pic!

Mike3800 · 06-13-2005, 01:59 PM

This picture in the thread might be chopped but the car I saw driving down the road must have had one of these kits on it.
