My reality just broke.

First, take a look at this.

Right now, you're probably thinking, "so what? It's a pretty normal photo."

But it's not real.

In his close ups you may have the tiniest of tiny traces of it feeling photoshopped, but you just have to look back up to see just how zoomed in those images really are.

Simply put, this man is a god at photo-realism.

I'm impressed, that man can work for any graphics company he wants to.

When he dies, he'll be a millionaire (all great artists are rich after death).

[gross]

Holy hell that was amazing

[Joe-Milionare]

LOL ur funny liar!!!

[Aea]

So is this for 360 or PS3?

Seriously though, it's not that hard to tell it's a 3d render/photoshop. I can tell from the pixels and from seeing many shops in my time.

I've seen this before and read an article on it, it showed how each bit it in detail was made. If I can find it I'll post it later.

I can tell that isn't real. But it is a marvelous work of photoshop

I can see that without zooming in. The left platform edge is pixelated, and too straight to be real. The brickwork of the red building on the right looks to me like a smudge tool, etc...

Simply put, this man is a god at photo-realism.

I'll agree with that

So much work for just a 1000x333 image.

That guy is going to work for Disney or some shit.

I was just browsing through the art section. Probably the most impressive is this one:

red truck

[Ganon42]

That is THE coolest thing I have ever seen. That's amazing!

Seizure_Dog is dead. WoebegonenessIsSad lives on for 10,000 more posts.

And for the record, I still technically feel that I quit. I'm not nearly as active anymore. Haven't deposited hardly at all and only visit the forums every now any then.

And all right, I caved. There's no fucking good forums on the net >:(

Sure, if you want your next Pixar movie to come out in the year 3000.

It took the guy 11 months to make that one picture.

Yep,that is like a rule

[TheAutocrat]

holy shit. i wish i was half as good as him.

Here are some tips for those of you who don't know how to tell when a picture is made digitally or not:

The first step is to see how "clear" some of the objects, like signs appear. In the photo, look at the blue sign on the right. It is far too smooth to be real.

Second, try to find any traces of a fuck up. This guy is good, so there aren't any.

Third, compare the shading with the lighting of adjecent buildings. The darkness of the shadows don't match the lighting of the red building in the background on the right. You have a nearly setting sun on the building and a slightly past noon sun shadow on everything else.

Wow, that picture is fantastic! At first glance I thought it was real, but after staring awhile I was able to pick out the parts that didn't seem so real.

Still, amazing.

[Lil-Jimmy]

Bo-shizzy! Das hawt! Really!

[PurpleHaze]

it doesn't look real, too colorful and all objects are outlines weirdly..... i could tell it wasn't real.

[Brianator]

Man, thats some crazy shit.
