Why can we immediately spot the difference between a model car and a real one even if there is nothing to compare its size to?

Just take a look at [this picture](https://www.looksmartmodels.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/lamborghini-huracan-performante-spyder_03.jpg), you can tell immediately that its a model car even though there is nothing in the picture to compare its size to. My guess is that the paint isn’t authentic to our eyes, but are there other reasons as well?

It’s all down to camera work and craftsmanship of the miniature.

I’d wager most people dont realise when miniatures are used in movies.
