Always big fans of creative liveries, (more here) this proclamation of national sporting pride didn’t escape our notice. Os Gªmeos (which means twins in Portuguese) are Brazilian graffiti artists Otavio and Gustavo Pandolfo who began stamping their unique style of painting that combines hip hop traditions with Brazilian culture in 1987. Their distinct yellow characters signify and reflect their home country in their own unique urban style.
Now, in what’s been referred to as the coolest plane on earth, the twins have been working on a Boeing 737 to transport Brazil’s national soccer team for the FIFA World Cup which begins on June 12. It will certainly make a statement at any airport during one of the world’s favourite sporting events.

The real battles we believe, will be between the pilots fighting over who gets rostered onto flying the plane!
