Thanks for the compliments man! This shot was not random. I'm a photography nut. I planned the angle of direct light and reflected light as well as opened the rear window to show how steep the hill actually was.

Every picture I take of my scalers I try to make it look like a 1:1 because of my background in both photography and 1:1 crawlers.

The BIGGEST key to making scalers look like legit 1:1 rigs in pics is to put your camera (cameraphone in my case) as low to the ground as you can. IMO those pictures with low angled cameras are the photos on this thread that look real.

Compare the picture you like with this one.


Same rig. Same spot. Same day. Same minute. Same camera. Same everything. But this one would almost never be confused with a 1:1 even though the rig and terrain looks pretty realistic.

Your camera should almost be resting on the ground when you take it to simulate the height at wich a 1:10th human being would hold their camera at about eye-level.

Not quite on the level of most of these trucks, but here it is anyway.
