The new Internet Buzz.....The Shiny Leg.

Or....is it?

Once you unsee it, you can never 'see' it again.

Drat.

I immediatey saw the shiny legs...looked like they were encased in a hard plastic form. Amazing how the mind/eye works.

There are tons of eye-trickery images on Google.

Here are a couple....all done with paint & live models.

I saw those yesterday when I went to weather.com to check out our forecast but of course I don't click on things like that.

The legs look like they are covered in baby oil.

@sidsmom I know but I don't know what's on them making them look like that.

@Nightowlz

Spoiler below:

It's just a few streaks of white paint on bare legs.

Yes, I "unsaw" it and now I can't see it again. I don't know what I'm supposed to be seeing unseeing? in those other two.

@VanSleepy

The other two just focuses on the eye-trickery.

Those are live, actual models walking around looking like

an acrylic painting. It's amazing how an artist can 'see' that in real-time.

Beautiful talent.

I take back what I said in my previous post...this is very interesting!

Amazing. Yes at first it looked like a plastic doll legs. Shiny, greasy, wierd looking. Like cat hair would stick to them. lol

Now they look like flat/matte legs with streaks of white paint---and they look like they are dry and need a little moisturizer!

Now my spoiler looks/reads weird.

At first I thought they were mannequin legs!

Wow. I did not see anything except shiny plastic coated legs until I read the spoiler. That is unreal.

That is really interesting.I wonder how people think these things up.I mean if I had white paint streaks on my legs I would be busy trying to get it off rather than taking a pic.

I don't get it.

Cool. When you know what's it is, you can see it right off.
