fake

Whoah, thats pretty cool dude!

Why is the "original" they appear to be standing around have the photoshopped bits as well?!? FAKE!

FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE

fake

They're called artifacts.
They happen when you use JPG format and don't set the quality high. If you look around the guys hair where there is white behind their head, you can see them too.

I used to draw pictures of homeless rodeo clowns but not any more. Now I draw world class magicians !

is it fake?

hi


if this is real the guys who made this ...

arrange a press conference and make any celeb's(any portrait) portrait in front of media and people and prove their talent

huh ? *confused*

hi i am bangladeshi and like any girl picture see naked

fake

Photo realism as good as this is actually quite common from what I've seen on oekaki boards and the like. I'm not surprised if this is real, and all the naysayers on here should take a look at www.oekakicentral.com if they doubt that this kind of photo realism can be achieved.

What do you mean? That is my my new girlfriend...
:sad:

Definitely calling BS on this one!

Nah, Dru Blair has been makin g photo real airbrush paintings since. 80's... He should be able to do a photo real portrait by now.

Whoa, So much work and time, but its worth it, I guess. They did better at VR than anyone. But wouldn't it be easier to just take a photo?



Maybe I'm just a surrealist

Nice Art Work, but 70hours for one photo?! Id rather have a real shoot with less time in post.

FAKE!

whoa... again...

This is 100% fake because there is color-aberation in the hair parts: only occurs in a photocamera lens...

Copying a photo, meh. I can do that too, if I wanted to waste some 30 hours of life...

ROFL, fake - it IS a real photo. Even if someone could draw skin pores like that, it would be its own very, very time-consuming step, which is not documented.

Traced.

I do the same with women photogrphs, they get a photo ande make a picture. It's not true.

i could shit a picture out better than that

is it real? i don't believe it. please somebody tell me what it is..

the funny thing is, I made the second picture (3 guys holding the portrait)

I wish people would open up their minds and be wise enough to find this guys name and go to his website www.drublair.com and figure out that this is for real, honestly people come on.Why must so many people be naysayers.

ps: I love how this guys name is Dru
He was born to draw
rock on!

If people would just look at the photo and find his website they could look him up and find out he is for real, rather than making lame comments about how this is fake!

good work

Fake, totally unconvincing. All computer trickery.

Next.

Geez people, take 2 seconds to Google before screaming fake. Dru Blair has been doing this for years, and he is amazing. I have several of his military prints hanging on my wall. Go to his website and see many examples of his talent and quit yelling FAKE every time you see something on the internet for craps sake.

The face is almost certainly Jana Defi, a softcore porn star. Do a google image search and you'll find plenty of pictures of her. Compare the eyes, eyebrows, nose, lips, and especially the earlobes. The chest obviously doesn't match her, but the dress looks familiar and I think I've seen it before on a celebrity.

I don't believe this picture to be anything more than a very well blended photo composite. I have experience with doing digital photo composites, as well as airbrushing, and unless I actually see this being done in airbrush, in person, then I am going to call this a photo composite. The step by step pictures seem to simply be a smoke screen to deceive you.

fantastic.... dats all i can say.... its a complete mouth shut art !!!

And that's why Dru Blair is famous and not you. How about visiting his website and his magazine articles and his accomplishments before using your "experience" to sell him short.
