you not very exigent with work....this is a 4/10 note max.(hope you wont work for me one day :)
Who would wanna work for someone who don't appreciate good work, i even believe that you have problem looking for one. Get a life dude.
what if its the sky is cloudy that day?
the streaks are empty, not actually painted.
but the paintroll is blue
Yeah, the roller brush IS blue. I'm trying to visualize the picture with a slightly darker (or lighter) sky, or like someone said, towards the sunset where it's dark orange color, that big blue roller will still be clearly visible, which I imagine will hurt the message quite a bit. It's a pretty risky proposition to have to entirely rely on that particular day's weather for the ad to work perfectly...
That said, the overall effect of the billboard probably more than makes up for any unintentional contradiction in the message. I think people will like it and get a little chuclke out of it and even spread the word, which is a compliment for any good piece of work.
The idea here is not anything new as some of you might already know. The incorporation of natural surroundings and/or "background" color to make a point for a billboard advertising has been done quite often. I think it's the way how this board is "diecut", that makes it FEEL fresh. The concept here is just another iteration of already-been-tested-and-tried one elsewhere.
All in all, I like it, minor flaws and all... I give it 7/10.
great point. what a waste ain't it...
No matter wat you do,
33% of the people will love it,
33% of the people will hate it,
And the rest won't give a fcuk.
Suggestion: There are materials in existence that can be used to replace the roller brush tube with something that is a bit transparent and glossy that diffuse light. (First thought is frosted acrylic? There are others... ) That way, it adapts to the color behind it but doesn't completely match it, achieving the paint-on-brush effect.
awesome
GOOD ONE.

wow! my mouth is open for 2 seconds .....really suuuuuuuperrrrrrrr!
gr8 work
raju das.
great... just if the sky stay the same
nice photoshopping. by the way tista, isn't that a cal a/c? so scam che scam che, yeh toh scam ...che re
creative. shmeative.
It is not scam for your kind information.
Then what is it? It's not a real billboard, as the guy on it is real an not a mannequin. He isn't gonna hang all day long for a month. So its been photoshopped and the real billboard doesn't exist. So then, what else should make it a scam?
Great.. Best outdoor of the year
Awesome idea. Really good.
Best from india..
All The Best...
Pray to the Rain Gods that it never rains ;)
Good one Minal!

it's really great. i've a little concern about it. How this will communicate at sunset, and sunrise as the roller brush is in the blue colour?
I don´t know if the board is supposed to be colored blue? Or if it´s supposed to be cut so that you always see the actual color of the sky? If it´s the first way it´s not that good.
lovelyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy....................
Wow! Mind-blowing. Really fresh piece of work.
Impressive :)

Nice idea, but the billboard seems to have no depth whatsoever. It's paper thin. Unless it's made of aircraft steel, those spikes would be flapping around in the most minor breeze.
I like to think it's an ad that really ran and has been retouched to make it look better for the sake of awards.
That non-mannequin guy though...
I'm not that bothered if it ran or not actually... and the guy could be dead and nailed into place for all I care. As an idea it really stands out, it's clever, it makes me smile, and it has the perfect three-word strapline to bring it all together. Superb.
WHO THE FUCK CARES ABOUT YOUR SMILE NASTY-ASSHOLE?
Ah, the same guest commenter from the DHL ad, I presume? How are you? You really took that comment about being an annoying, illiterate, client-comment-making prick to heart, didn't ya? So much so that you pretended to be a whole plethora of guest commenters in your efforts to smite me. That's so cute it makes me wanna ruffle your hair, you little scamp. Come here...
this can be real. O&M Philippines created a billboard for Ponds, and used a real person-- but replaced it with a dummy after documentation.
Great idea
see it again ad more at | http://felket.blogspot.com/
the concept will be more better if the painting surface is metal, because enamel paints never used on plastic surface.
Nice...
But what happens in the early morning, late evening and night?
in the early morning there will be the sunset - in the late evening there will be the sundown and in the night there will be a lot of stars - thats sooo easy in real life
one should not take life so seriously - as one will not come out of it alive.
wow :)))
Reminds me a lot of the old Weather Channel billboards, but it's still pretty cool.
Interesting idea but it wouldn't match the sky 99% of the time, thereby ruining your brand credibility.
that's not paint, it IS the sky.
I think she meant the blue paint roller, chief!
We know how much you LUUUUV this ad. But let's settle down, okay?
actually, i just think this ad is ok. for a one time installation it's working (maybe - the pointed parts look suspicous). but talking about the idea, i don't think people even see or care about the paint roller.
but yeah, let's settle this
Poor billboard guy!, give him some vacations,
one more ad with the billboard guy and it will become a category
good
what if the roller is a mirror-cylinder?
go get laid or something assshole.
GREAT ONE. CONGRATS!!!
http://adsoftheworld.com/media/ambient/koleston_naturals_change
Great ads. Awesome. Very simple but a great idea.
It seeems to be all comments are from the same company*
the guy's been dead for over a week
amazing!!!!
one of the best hoarding i ever seen!
SUPERB
90% comments are from the same company who have done this. it's ok not great.what this is the best outdoor from the all over world BULLSHIT.
excellent!
awsome!
This is good even though the man is real so I cant believe this ran with some dude hanging there forever. Also has anyone notice that JWT india tends to flood any ad they post with fake comments? That's padding the stats, I'm on too you...
with all due respect to JWT, but this was done before in a better way

DEAR NASTY JESTER LOSER,
how would you know if I am the guest from the DHL or from the Kit Kat sudoku or even shani G? you have insulted so many people during your short (very short just like your cock)short period here on this site! if you say I'm all those comenters (of which i'm one.HONESTLY - I PROMISE YOU) I wish I really could be all those people who hate you but cant bother registering as shani G and the rest. That comment itself shows how dumb you are and you are clearly one of those people who is hated by all, i feel sorry for you.I really do. you insult people for no reason and its only fair others hit you back. I bet you are hated even by your own family and friends (no point talking about ur office...)get a life loser. you clearly dont have one!as for ruffling my hair (yea since you badly wanna do it, u may ruffle the hair below, if u have the brains to know where that is)
I would know that you're the same guest commenter because you've just referenced all of the ads that I (and, subsequently, you) have commented upon. Not only this, but you've also copied and pasted the same (I mean word for word) comment onto two separate discussion boards. Why don't you make another client comment on this ad instead of wasting your time with long-winded, dick-based insults? Perhaps the sky is too blue in this advert? Or maybe you'd rather the man doing the painting be shorter in stature? Bigger logo? I dunno, you tell me, you're the client.
ya i'm the client and ur the loser-hated by all. you right I did cut and paste and next time i'm gonna cut your 12inch dick and paste it on your mama's pussy. she shouldnt give birth to dumb losers like you.
Good idea!
superb
