Talk:Julian Beever

Angle on picture
The picture of the mountain dew ad is obviously seen from the correct angle, as the picture is right-side up. If it was, as marked, from the "wrong" viewpoint, it would be very stretched. I'm changing the caption. --Ironchef8000 (talk) 01:00, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
 * I think you're right, but there's no point in pointing out it's the right angle. So I removed the sentence altogether. Key to the city (talk) 15:18, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
 * The Mountain Dew ad is slightly stretched to one side. These things don't work on a "right-side up or wrong-side up" basis - you have to be standing in exactly the right spot for the illusion to work. (A view from the correct angle is here.)
 * It's worth pointing out that it's viewed from the wrong angle, because the given example doesn't look very good and does a poor job of illustrating Beever's work. --McGeddon (talk) 16:49, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I've now replaced this with a better-quality photo of a later work, found on Flickr (although I'm not convinced that this one is from quite the right angle either). --McGeddon (talk) 11:19, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

Clean Up
The article was full of fan guff, so I've removed it all and just left the factual elements (most of which need sources, but I don't have time tonight). I'll try to clean it up a bit more when I have time, he sounds an interesting person, but the article needed to be far more encylopedic! BulbaThor (talk) 23:30, 24 December 2010 (UTC)

Major expansion and rewrite
I've completely overhauled the article, adding much biographical background and artistic development info, with references. Some more pictures might better convey what his artwork is about, and his masterful skill in drawing. Reify-tech (talk) 19:57, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
