thanks addsenior… see to me in activist art to me the message is more important than the art, in an effort to turn out some quick ‘statements’ I wasn’t meditating on the ‘generic’ issues that stick in the minds of obsessive creatives… sorry I don’t mean to tar you with a brush at all, but if that’s what struck you first up, i think… 1. My audience are people who are interested about the point being communicated, half of them probably don’t know what illustrator is… let alone that it’s a ‘ink’ pen brush tip… should I have used real blood…
2. did you not get the symbolism...??? 

yes straight to the point ‘anyways’… didn’t realise that my graphics skills would be out on the table… do you point out when there is pixellation in photo pieces…

no not offended just feeling angsty… aren’t you...???

thanks for the feedback, but it doesn’t bother me in this instance… I think many people are smart enough to realise that it’s about realism… getting ACTIVISM to an AUDIENCE ..

Can I ask why it is such a shame...???

Will you return to this comment…

Will I ever get another comment again…

I get very tired of seeing generic cutout and sillouhette vector art on tshirts being praised as godwonderful… it’s just flat colour… sheesh… does that bug you??? is that a shame?

I think addsenior is right about the generic brush stroke from illustrator, you could have at least erased some make some bigger than others. kaoskyane i know you are trying to get your message across and you are doing it, but this contest is about design execution, i like your concept a lot.
