McNificently Terrible

McDonalds is an empire that has many a foe. Many of them tend to be the little guys - us. Over in VICELand, freelance writer Kyle G blared his anti-establishment horn while jumping up and down on his soapbox in an effort to single-handedly turn the McGiant on its head.

It wasn't successful - but he harps about his small (albeit pointless) victory over the working class league perched under the golden arches.

One of his genius ideas he tried so diligently to push forward: The McNificent. A triple-stacked burger of death yielding its quad-bypass-inducing meat combination of beef, fish and chicken.
The over-eater's sloppy, wet dream. And clearly, an image that I had a hard time trying to shake.

As a response to the editorial, I decided to create some illustrations that play along with the farce Kyle G decided to orchestrate.


 















Bada ba ba bah… as it were.

Illustration Double Whammy

It's been a productive week, everyone!
Illustratrion Friday has really got my creative juices flowing, with last week's word "Reverse" and this past Friday's choice, "sweater".

Here's my submission for "reverse":


Reverse

This also doubled as a commission piece for a friend and client of mine who moonlights as a freelance writer. His piece will be released later on today.


As for "sweater":

Sweater [Swagger Like Us]

People like to kid about my sweater collection, and I always tell them that my #1 inspiration is The Cosby.

Looks like he approves :)

Enjoy!

Illustration not done on a Friday…

Hello hello!

Welp, this has been complete for about a week now, but I've just got around to posting it up here (a thousand apologies). Here's my submission for last week's Illustration Friday's word "Surrender"

Surrender

Like it? I was rather pleased with how it turned out - despite having a completely different vision for it. If you'd like to read more about what my initial plans for the illustration were, mosey on over here.

Peace & Love!
