One of the problems with finding things that I can post on my blog is that there is often a big gap between me finishing a piece of work and it actually appearing where it is intended to appearing. Here is a good example, a window display I worked on last summer for Adam B, a printers near Tottenham Court Road in Central London. Here are some pictures I snapped on my phone when I happened upon it all printed and all put up, last week.
Here is a distant view:
This is what I saw when I walked a bit closer:
The image goes across two separate windows. Here is the left window:
Here is the right:
Now I'm walking away:
Im further away now:
Here is the original:
I also did a black & white option:
Here is a photoshop mock-up that I made to show how it would look printed and put up. Im happy at how close it matches the reality:
Here is another mock-up:
Im not sure how long it will be up for, I think it my be semi-permanent for now. If you want to go see it, you will find it here.
P.S. This is my 100th blog post! Hooray!!!!
EDIT: Here are some extra photos that the Swishly talented Mr Augustine Coll sent me (he's the chap in the photos). Point your eyes at them then point your eyes at his website too (here).

Congratulations on your 100th post. And the shop window thing. It looks cool. Agustin actually spotted it the other day when he was walking around with his sister. I was looking at their photos yesterday and was suddenly like "Oh wow! That's Tom's work!!". Looks really good. I want to go down and check it out for myself while it's still up...
Hey, I also saw Agustin's photos on his camera and thought your work looked very, very good, but now I see the clear photos on your blog it looks even better! Well done, really nice work!
Haha! Thank you Tom!
Very nice work, really catches the eye towards the shop (me myself as an alive example of lured passerby).
Olé!
Who knew that UTAH was with TILLMANNS?
Who knew that JONES was with JACHESCO?
Who knew that MP was with ROVE and GERMANY?
TEXAS HETU and ARIZONA, did.
And who knew that FRANCE - OREGON had a " Bee"?
RUSH LIMBAUGH did and he did it with LOUISIANA.
And what are those " companies" that knew all of this?
PATER- PATEDERE- SYLOPA- CONIZ.
All , " supposedly" , for OSIRIS- PETWOOD- HYDRA...
With BUNN- BUNN 5 .
And who are the ones , ultimately , that made it " happen"?
GOVERNMENT- LOWE- BRITISH AIRWAYS.
