Snake Bus vehicle wrap, thoughts?

[Robert Lambie]

Looks great Dave, really impressive and i bet catches allot of folks eye on its travels. nice find…

to be honest though, although i accept not the exact same, it is very similar idea to what one of our UKSB members posted some years ago but actually done by Air-Brush. you might remember it yourself, but i forget now who it was that posted.
anyway… It was one of the category winners in the "The Great Signlab Design Contest" run by Cadlink about 14 years ago Worldwide… The Sign Writer had air-brush painted a string of Sausages wrapped around a butchers van exactly like that snake has been done and everywhere the sausages wrapped around the van edges it was crushed in, again, just like the snake.

This was the van,

The snake bus looks a bit photoshopped?
I can’t find any other photos of the bus on the net.

If it’s for real, though, it’s a great job!

That’s the one, Peter…
James actually came to mind, but I thought he posted it on behalf of someone else… I guess I was wrong! 🤨
Looking at it now, it doesn’t look just as I remember, but still the very same principle as the snake.
Looks like James had a design well ahead of its time, because I’m sure the contest was around 12-14 years ago, it was submitted for Cadlink’s “The Great Signlab Contest”.
Well done to him!
