Jamukha, GOT MILK?

Exhibition

Submitted by gigsmella on Mon, 2008-04-21 11:11.

Have you ever wonder why aliens abduct cows?
Jamukha is a space traveler, weightlessness causes fragile bones, so he needs a lot of calcium, and where do you get calcium?

Here’s a pseudo “Got Milk” ad I did using purely Adobe illustrator, the idea came from a friend of mine, I told him I was doing a Got Milk digital painting and he asked if it’s about Alien, I said “no, but it’s a good idea”.

In this vector artwork I have applied all the techniques I know in Adobe Illustrator and soon I’ll be posting a small tutorial about it in my site.

Cheers!

Beautiful illustration. Truly awesome.

Not loving your body copy though.

That is some great vector work. Very nice job on the shading. I look forward to reading the article.

I agree on the body copy: I don't think it needs any, the illustration stands on its own.

I think it'll work with just the "Got Milk?" tag.

Alien's abducting cows is a pretty common visual which doesn't need further explanation, and you don't need to go into the reasons that aliens drink the milk (at least not in a headline, this is the kind of story you'd add in a block of body copy if you had it) but it needs something more to make it from an illustration into a milk ad.

how about instead of the copy adding your "explanation" as headline: "ever wondered why aliens abduct cows?" i think that's pretty funny.

Designs are good u need to work more on illustrations. font used in design are not redable try some other fonts.

I don;t think this needs any copy at all other than "Got Milk". I think the visual drives the idea perfectly (other than the "weightlessness makes for weak bones", which I think is totally unnecessary...the illustration already targets kids) and copy just detracts from an otherwise killer ad.

Even though it's already been said: The illustration is giving me a semi. SOOOOOOO awesome :)
