I'm not disputing the fact that the plane exists.
I'll buy this one:

But look closer at that picture that was posted here. The plane is at almost a 45 degree angle to the camera and you are looking almost straight on to the prop, spinner, intake and exhaust stacks.
It looks like the PS artist pulled the nose cowl from a TexanII and the prop and spinner from a King Air with the blackhawk conversion.
He would have pulled it off if he has selected a different photo of the original aircraft at more of a straight on angle.
