Title: German Truck Art
Post by: Jimbob on 03 February 2010, 18:35:50
THE GERMAN ARTISTS ARE AT IT AGAIN...   
 
 
 
Here are 7 pictures of European trucks whose trailers are decorated to look like the sides are missing and the products they are hauling are painted on the sides and back. 

The first one is of a bottle of beer and looks so real, like it is coming out the side of the  trailer..

The  second is of canvas tote bag.

The third  is of Pepsi cases and they are all stacked on the ceiling, and the bottom of the trailer is empty.

The fourth is of another truck with the windshield facing the back and there has been a driver painted in the driver’s seat looking back over his shoulder to appear like he is driving backwards.. (Now this one is just plain scary, even when the German reads ‘On the wrong way?’)

The fifth one is of an aquarium with fish swimming in it.

The sixth one is of a bookshelf with books lined up in it and a post-it-note with an advertisement on it, probably for the company that sells the books.

The last one is for Pringles-Hot & Spicy. The “inside” of the trailer has the appearance of having been through a fire.

was going to say exactly that, sometimes seen on test match cricket pitches, catch the n power logo on a differant camera and its 100ft high/long whatever. I'd like to see how they draw them out, i always imagine some sort of laser marks the outline when aimed from the camera position
