Picturesque Design Duplication by "Dr. K" and Tim David

Does anyone know anything about this effect? I have been burned before from Tim David and so I am being very careful. The effect seems interesting and I don't mind spending the money if the effect is really worthwhile.

Any help out there?

Ugh. The effect looks like it could be cool, but the advertising sucks. It looks like they're saying it's absolutely perfect in almost every way, but they still are selling it for only $14.95, which probably means that there's some iffy-ness about it in a very subtle way. And that preview video, what was up with the colour inversion and lame scream at the end? "Shock" value? That part alone made me think that these guys are way too unprofessional to even consider buying the effect.

I am not too sure but the advertising is too vague since it only shows the ending and not the entire process. furthermore, it did not show the spectator's drawing too. Also, I personally feel that he tends to play on words to cause a misunderstanding by customers, especially if u are are just starting out on magic.[that is just my personal opinion, not flaming him or anything alright! peace! =)]

I know of another method but it involves using a whiteboard or plastic as a board and whiteboard markers instead. Personally, I would not take the risk and purchase it. haha

I think It's too good to be true. Have you tried searching for reviews somewhere else harold?

I have searched for reviews and such but found none.

On Monday he is raising his price on it so I was trying to see if I should chance it. From what I am hearing, I probably shouldn't chance it.

I'll let everyone know if I decide to go for it.

I'll lend you an extra hand looking for reviews. I'll post something about it or PM as soon as I find one.

UPDATE: I believe we won't be able to find any reviews of this. the product has only been out for a week and a few days I think.

harold I think not getting to save the $5 would be bigger loss than $14.

I wouldn't suggest It, but It's all up to you. If it is what it says it is, It'd be good.

Btw. out of the topic but check the video at 0:32. damn. what's that? hahahaha.
