Ok sorry admin if this might be against the rules.


Alright Udo, here some examples.

First there is the DIOR EYEWEAR shot.


And then there are the mock ads.  Calvin Klein 


And then there is the Make Your Own Tearsheet


OK That is only a few examples. And certainly there are tons more members who do this. Too bad I can't post them all instead of just calling attention to only three lucky members.


Why do I think the ads are fake. They do not look real or are of a make believe company.

I just think its unprofessional... that's all.

The Dior Eyeware tear seems legit. The photog shoots mainly male models. With all the tears he has on OMP I doubt he would get away with them being fakes for so long.


Tha Calvin Klein ad says it's a mock ad. Many photogs do it and it's not claiming it's real. It has a mock ad disclaimer. It's a matter of personal taste whether you like looking at it or not.

MM xxxx? Didn't see anything about making your own tear sheet.

Not defending anyone, just checked out the facts before posting.

If you have suspicions about fake profiles or copyright infringements you should contact Tyler privately. Only the administration can handle those problems. No one here has the need to know unless it directly involves them. It will only cause problems by posting members profile numbers only on a whim and personal opinion. We have enough of that already.

That's exactly what I thought. And why I thought it would be against the rules.

I've edited out the members, you are totally right about that. But they are still in your quote... oh well I tried.

And you might be right about the first guy. But I will have to look again, so I can tell you why I felt that way.

To each their own on opinions of what they think of mock ads and photogs putting their business name to try to emulate a tearsheet.

As for OMP and its credibility... I know a guy who has totally fake Prada ads listed under "Tearsheets". When I talked to him about it he told me the reason he had those up was because it was a "mock ad" and well.... some other excuse too lame for me to remember. But unlike the MM member he does not say its not real.

Warned or not, I have a problem with it.
