van wrap: no back doors

Posted by T1RBO on August 28, 2003 at 9:44 pm

Playing with the Edge this time we hit on this idea for our LT46 that tows my rally car.

The photo is from the Jaguar F1 transporter and we managed it without any reprints! We were pleased enough considering we’d not done one before but real pro’s would love to look behind the number plate 😀

You should have superimposed a ‘Doberman’ inside – that’d deter those of a low-intelect trying to jump-in and grab ya’ gear!!! 😛

nice job! 😉

more soon

Thanks for that – we did think of a notice saying “No tools are stored in this van” but then thought that the REAL doberman would leave the element of surprise…

Nice job.

I did something similar years ago. It was before the advent of digital printing and the monochrome image was made up of hundreds of lines of varying thickness, thick where the image was dark and thin where it was light, in a similar way to how a black and white tv picture is made up.

It’s good to see the same effect created with a print though, and a sign of how things have moved forward.

Boy I must be thick, I had to study this for a while. My 1st thought was that you fit tool boxes. But eventually I realised how it works.

Nice work very 1 off…

I love it, trompe l’oeil at its best.

We had an idea but didnt have the bottle to use it for our works van.
We were going to remove the drivers door completely I was then going to be photographed sitting in the drivers seat dressed in suspenders and high heels with my hands on the wheel.

The door was then going to be put back on with the picture of me with my
“delicates”on stuck on to the door . Thus giving the illusion of me driving around with the door off wearing ladies underwear. Almost did it but I thought i couldnt do with the ridicule!!
