sdrodder Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Real, shop truck from the alexander brothers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikemodeler Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Harry, The warm weather in Chi-town must be getting to you as no one has guessed "model" as of yet. I thought that truck looked familiar and the others have reminded me of whose it is. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clay Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 I say real also. Something just says real. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry P. Posted July 14, 2008 Author Share Posted July 14, 2008 Harry, The warm weather in Chi-town must be getting to you as no one has guessed "model" as of yet. It has been pretty warm here lately... Maybe I should up the ante and allow myself to manipulate the photos more! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry P. Posted July 14, 2008 Author Share Posted July 14, 2008 It's real. Nothing here that says "background trickery". Exactly! The mark of a well-done retouch job is the fact that you can't even tell... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clay Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Real....Alexander Brothers Grasshopper. Real, shop truck from the alexander brothers. THe one rule here is to not say where you have seen it from, shame on you two!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VW Dave Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 I voted 'real,' and I agree that replies should not include dead giveaway info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesW Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 I know better, but I'm gonna say model just to be different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bernard Kron Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 I'm finally gonna get one right 'cause I know the picture. Unfortunately, it'll be the first time... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry P. Posted July 15, 2008 Author Share Posted July 15, 2008 (edited) I voted 'real,' and I agree that replies should not include dead giveaway info. That's exactly right. We've gone over this before, guys. If you KNOW the answer for sure, DON'T TELL EVERYONE ELSE WHAT THE ANSWER IS! That just ruins the whole thing for everyone! If you tell everyone that it's a photo of the "John Jones hot rod that I saw on TV last week" then you've just ruined the game for everyone else. Oh well...this one's over. I'll try again Monday...

Zoom Zoom Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Harry, IIRC the same thing happened at the other site and I believe that the only way to prevent most instances of people blurting out the answer is to make the rules of the game clear in every week's ROM. Nobody's trying to sabotage it, they simply either forgot or don't know the rules. A little "boilerplate" warning should work wonders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
