The execution leaves a bit to be desired, though.

Like kerry said, there are a bunch of those little 4 cyl. Toyota campers running around.

I'm lucky that my disposable income is at a minimum. My penchant for weird vehicles extends far beyond just Mercedes.

That is heresy. Doing that to any Mercedes is a mortal offense even if it is photoshop

Well, I think the photoshop alterations made it look safer, more functional, off road capable and it's now a snappy green to boot. The real MB camper looks like a top heavy turd.

Sorry if I offended you ... I always try to use Photoshop for good, not evil.

15 years of working my way up to VP of Creative Services.

I quit 2 years ago to start my stained glass studio, do freelance graphic design and raise my now 2.5 YO and 1 YO. Doing stuff like this and the MShop superheroes is fun and relaxing for me.

Thanks for the compliment.

Aww Maaan!! The ad got flagged. Just when I was going back to see if there was an under hood shot to determine if there was a hydraulic fluid reservoir.
