alright, when i get out of school today, i'm gonna make a vid on my digital camera of me erasing the F***ING original will all you penises be happy then? come on, reduced quality, reduced size, pinkbike blows for that, the original gap/crash pic of mine is big enough to make a decent sized poster out of but pinkbike smashes it and makes it look ugly compared to the original. Maybe you people calling me a cheat will stfu after today, that would be nice since what's in front of you isn't enough info to prove anyways
i lol alot, cos there is no way you could get that much detail, as said before you've just fiddled about and edited a bogstandard photo of a bike.
if not, get a vid up of you doing another and i will eat my hat.
skwat-1's one isnt, you can see on the tire that part of it has been chopped off when photoshopping it, you can see the same thing on this one too, the tires are a good indication, the tires look stupid cos he has lasooed the bike, the treads arent even therefore it has been photoshopped i win
It really all comes down to you have awesome drawing talents and those who cant do anything but whine are just jealous, Just cause a guy can draw something That looks exactly like the real bike doesnt mean shit, i haev watched my buddy draw an exact Duplicat of a Lotus Elise, Adn whe nu put the 2 pics side by side there exactly alike, took him 2 days but he did it.
So i think everyone should just leave this guy alone i belive he drew it, but even if he didnt what do you care? its a picture....
I'm inclined to believe that it's real after putting both images in Photoshop and comparing them side-by-side, looking closely at each detail. If you look at everything, you can see subtle differences, improvements even, over the original image on Specialized's website. Honestly I was skeptical at first, but I truly believe that this is a physical graphite rendering, not a doctored jpeg.
if you look at his pic the wheels arent perfectly round and he drew schrader valves when on the real bike the presta valves and the bottom of the seat tube is different from the pic on the site, so you can actually tell he drew it
well thanks for all the support and for people that don't believe, I will have a lot more bike stuff soon, finally graduated from high school so now my days are spent between tele-ing and work at the shop-more time to draw now-I'd post non bike sketches but i'm pretty sick of the ridicule-that and I try to avoid the internet for keeping art original-bike stuff i don't give a hoot about though so when I draw another I'll post up
My mom is a professional artist, I know from seeing her paint that nothing is impossible with art. So keep up with the drawings camas it will get you some where in life. Way farther than cletus is ever gonna get.
why is it that people who don't have any experience in art whatsoever (or at least don't have any drawings of their own on pb to show it) tell me what is impossible and what is not? the picture is bigger than this anyways
photoshoped!!!!.......aha,jk i saw your video a while ago and im just seeing the picture now..thats sooo amazing man,takes some realll skill, i wish i could draw that well. props
uhh thanks... i think... lol i assure you its real, i've had to erase various parts of it at school to prove to people that it's not just printed from a computer, it's getting a little annoying redrawing
you're entitled to your opinion, it's not traced though, i used a straight edge, compass, a variety of shades of pencil, and graph paper at times keep everything lined up, and trust me, tracing at that detail is a lot harder than just drawing it, the real thing is bigger than any picture you can find on the internet, of course I did have specialized's website in front of me. If i had proof i'd show it, maybe i'll record a vid next time.
even look at the tire treads, decals , cranks and the brake levers + stem, i'm sorry but that has to be just a black and white pic with reduce contrast.
dude, it's reduced size and quality on pinkbike, i don't even have photoshop, my computer is such a pos i can't even watch f*cking pinkbike videos because it's too slow-give me a break or ask anyone that knows me, it's real, i can freaking erase whatever the fuzz i want. At school, most people don't believe me so i just erase a line on the seat since it's the easiest part to redraw, do you want me to upload a vid of me erasing it HENDY94?
