This thread needs more drama. Was thinking of the Huberdeau thread before he signed and the "body language" experts.

So, are there any photoshop experts to make sure the pics are legit?

l'll see myself out!

I think the board has a few paper tigers.

The scrappy/mouthy ones are probably timid & whipped middle-aged husbands that struggle to exercise any kind of power or control over anyone or anything irl so they seek to do it behind an anonymous moniker in the internet.

The contrast in behaviour is probably something else.

That's just my guess.

Should have posted the passenger side that was in the leaked photo. It looks better because the Flames logo is going the right way.

Anonymity and the ability to say things and not beld be accountable for their actions. Bunch of cowards if you ask me.

Who are you referring to? This is a hot take as it is pretty specific to someone allegedly acting tough in this thread because it’s an online platform and they wouldn’t say the same thing in person?

Am I interpreting that correctly?
I’m honestly not sure I’ve seen anyone speaking that way (in this thread) but maybe I missed it.

Some of the armchair psychology happening here is hilarious.

Easy chief, I wouldn’t go talking about the psyche of other men if I were you lest we end up having to check the tape. I think everyone caught enough of the incel vibe last time you made your self look silly talking about it.

I'll bite, but I'm more of an expert in Paint

This just looks like a poor photoshop to me.

The tips of the red flames, along the bottom-rear panel, do not line up in the same places when viewed between the side angle and rear angle (3 yellow lines).

Also, the darker ridge of the trunk intersects with the 1st bottom flame on the side angle, while on the rear angle it intersects on the 2nd bottom flame (1 red line). This is highlighted by the 3rd yellow line breaking through the red line to reach the flame tip on the side view, while it remains above the red line on the rear view.





This next one is sketchy too.

In one view, the smaller yellow line intersects with the tip of the red flame decal coming from the wheel well. There is also a moderate amount of red and yellow flames between the 2 yellow lines.

In the next view the smaller yellow line is nowhere near the tip of the red flame. There is also now much thicker band of red area, and only a little bit of yellow in the area between the 2 yellow lines.




Again, no expert, but this here ain't look right.

If it's a photoshop, it's an excellent photoshop.

I'm also not an expert, but I think the problem with the vertical line theory above is that there is no way to determine the actual vertical plane in reality. So vertical on MSPaint may mean a degree or two each way given the photo angles, which would account for the apparent discrepancy.

Something feels off about the look of the rear slogan, but it's probably just an optical illusion.

I'm not reffering to anyone in particular. I'm just stating what I believe to be true when it comes anonymity on a discussion forum.

Admittedly I know very little about wraps, but I have multiple clients who produce graphics for all sorts of end uses including vehicles. This design seems odd, lots of smaller graphics which wouldn’t cost much. The 1/4 top of the flaming C is the biggest and even then it looks off.

Seems quite pricey for what it was revealed.
I hope it’s not just a photo shop, I doubt it is.
The only shot that looks off to me was the rear shot.

This sounds like a healthy thing to center some values around.

This thread is insane. Cool van if that's what you were going for FG. Will feel pretty sick to drive around when the Flames are winning games.

My only nitpick is the E=NG decal. To each their own, but something about publicly calling people losers is kinda cringe. That's my take, but everything else looks pretty cool.

I assume the license plate was photo shopped so maybe that's why the rear shot looks off.
