I hope that's a poor translation, and not the final copy..
And somehow, i don't think Mothers will like being equated with a fly.

miko1aj's picture 1390 pencils

the message is not for mothers obviously and this fly is rather a representative of the viewer. Nice thought yet i'm not sure about how it's art directed.

bottleHeD's picture 84 pencils

I like the art direction, though..

Good work.

Huh? What? A fly? What? Pass the glue. I wish to sniff some too.

"every cockroach it's beauty in the eyes of its mother"
in italy it's a tipical saying... maybe, in Italy only..

cullers's picture 334 pencils

In light of that fact, it seems really sweet. However, I'd love to see the little roach giving the flowers to his mother to reinforce it. Then I think I would have gotten the message without knowing the saying.

Like the art. The line needs work though.

Hmmm, I like the art driection a lot, but the line and the concept is sheeeeettt.

We're going to need more lube.

NatalieM's picture 1693 pencils

Agreed. The art direction is cool, but the overall concept falls short.

klaussnow's picture 1689 pencils

its one of those "only a face a mother can love"jokes. gag.

... its already been done...

quodavid's picture 403 pencils

the beauty that someone sees, it isnt about the fly, is in the flowers that it carries,
you should see who the advertiser is, before posting a comment,
so, the copy is right and the art direction is excellent
