Kellan Lutz told the NY Daily News that Rob’s muscles are real:

Robert Pattinson’s “New Moon” co-star Kellan Lutz has denied the actor resorted to make-up tricks to gain a muscled torso for the “Twilight” sequel.

The British star’s stomach has come under scrutiny from Internet gossips in recent weeks, with many speculating his muscled appearance is the result of clever shading by the film’s make-up artists.

But Lutz, who will appear alongside Pattinson in the vampire movie, insists his pal’s sexy body is down to months of hard work in the gym with co-star Taylor Lautner.

Lutz tells the New York Daily News, “Taylor been training Rob a lot, and that’s why he’s got such ripped abs. Rob’s been working hard. He’s trying to be the best he can be.”

The info we received from people on the scene said they were real but they did accentuate them with make-up for the camera. Plus this will probably be discussed in the New Moon publicity tour. I really can’t wait to see this scene!!! It will be my favorite bar none!!!

Thanks Suzanne for the tip!

I have heard of many, many actors and movies using makeup as “shadowing” in order to enhance the muscles for the camera. It’s just like how they have to wear a bunch of makeup on their face to not get washed out. Women also do it for their cleavage in some scenes. Keira Knightley (sp?) did it for Pirates of the Caribbean.
