When Audi commissioned photographer Felix Hernandez Rodriguez (previously here) to photograph their sports car Audi R8, we knew that something wasn’t right. Turns out, he shot the $160,000 car by using a $40 scale model!

The most amazing part? He didn’t even use Photoshop. Everything was done using miniature models, props, lighting and in-camera effects.

If you’re starting to feel like you cannot trust anything you see anymore, you are not being paranoid. Check out our previous post ‘15+ Pics That Show Photography Is The Biggest Lie Ever‘ to see what we mean.

I've seen this photographers work, its pretty amazing stuff he produces with models

That hood gap though, it's like a Ford R8

[twitchyzero]

doubt many of prospective R8 buyers will see the panel gaps if you didn't tell them it's actually a scale model
