Daily Deviation

Given 2007-04-13

I win by ~designmemetic is a rarity recommendation: a linotype. I love lino. This has many of the qualities I like in linotypes; the contrast and angularity. I also dig the constructivist vibe (that thankfully deviates from constructivist color palettes) (Suggested by ~Pavlovhadgeenkat and Featured by `zeruch)

i like the way you carved out the block to make the sketchy shading on the hands. it is nice how it contrasts with the bold lines of the background.
The only negative thing that I have to say is that the smaller hand looks more cartoonish than the larger hand. The fingers remind me of E.T.
I know though that in print some little picky thing like that is annoying to hear because there is usually no going back, especially with multi-colour.
I guess the E.T ish-ness of the hands could add to the light-hearted subject matter of the piece, if that was what you were going for.

This whole poster is reminiscent of some form of Cold War propaganda poster. I love it. The highlighted areas are particularly good.

oh wow, great pic, would be nice postcard and poster... and stuff like that perhaps it would be more interesting if you had used different colors with the hands, but it's also good the way it is

Pretty tight, do you work with woodblocks much? This kinda reminds me of one with your rough lines, way cool.

Ingenious.

A bit too political to be a postcard/poster. That is, unless it's between two good friends with similar views in the world..
