    HOPE poster

    Although it's a blatant rip off of Shepard Fairey's "HOPE" poster, I thought I'd do it anyway. Not selling prints or anything for many obvious reasons including ethical ones regarding intellectual property.

    Hope you like it, I think it's humorous but I guess that's why I did it.




    Hope you guys get a kick out of it.

    It's the better (to be fair, traced) likeness. I didn't get who yours was at first.

    Always good to hear feedback, whether it be positive or not. I've gotten the totally opposite response from people oddly enough. Technically I think his isn't very good. Unfortunately he beat me to it though since he posted it 4 days ago and I had it sitting on my hard drive for weeks I guess in the end it's just a lame parody anyway.

    I always think of KFC.


    Anyway, I like it. I also found the one that Elwell posted easier to recognize, but I think that it's just because the text makes it a little more obvious and the symbol in the lower right sticks out more. I still like yours better.

    thanks for the feedback guys, I like hearing all comments, even if you don't like it (just tell me why or it's not very helpful). and the jfkfc poster is hilarious.
