Photoshopping has become almost impossible to detect thanks to spectacular software and amazing creativity. A fine example of this can be seen on [oilcorner’s deviantART page](http://oilcorner.deviantart.com/gallery/) - a self-proclaimed photo manipulator.

On this site you can see oddly familiar creatures - so life-like that you’ll swear you’ve seen them somewhere before.

The gallery here includes two Hippofrogs, a Zebrafrog and a Croggy. Other images may not be of [fake new species](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unnatural-history-museum-of-singapore), but they also demonstrate the [power of photoshopping](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selfyzai).
