not bad... would have been great if the client said, put em in FHM... so you could push the envelope more... kinda look like they would be okay to show the folks, which i think may be a little too tame.

A fun series: very subtle, very wry, *very* British. Nice work!

An interesting mix of sex and religious iconography that really gets to the heart of what the product is about - getting undressed and having fun, but in that classy refined way that says "I'm a consumer that enjoys rude, edgy humor."

I'd give them bonus points if they would have worked SM into it some way. Whips always get a laugh, especially on stained glass windows.

Nice! Religious but "Cheeky" Drink. I think the drink is not for young man but someone very old fashioned.
