Yes, I was going to ask, is that a car or a model.

The Autoart one's are great Jeff, very high quality and detail. I've got a dark metallic grey one (through ebay) and I was very impressed when it arrived in the mail. The attention to detail is superb, and they're a nice heavy, sturdy unit with a good weight to them. I'd really recommend one if you're into that kind of thing.

The large center image gives it away as a model.

It looks like it's shot with a telephoto, and because of the unreal relationship between the lens and the small object, the perspective looks orthographic (no perspective distortion) in a way that a full-size car wouldn't when shot with a long focal length.

The bottom right shot, on the other hand, is shot with a wide angle and the perspective looks real-world.

But I'm just shooting off my mouth to compensate for feeling inadequate because I don't own a real one . . . :mad
