Looks sexy, damn

Holy shit that looks beautiful. I could see that being blown up and made into a flag or a huge banner. Any reason behind why you designed this ? Or was it just boredom ?

I'm extremely busy with school at the moment, this was my final. I ended up using an inkjet printing style in which you use freezer paper, iron on whatever fabric (I personally used a toothy cotton cloth), and allow the print to run through the wide area printer.

The physical version of this banner (the one I turn in) actually is 1 ft x 3 ft in area.



On another note, the "WAR" portion of this poster can be read in both portrait perspectives. (Example below). Conceptually, this shows that the preparation for war is cause of war, but in the end it creates a never ending cycle (which is suggested by the circle orientation of the outside text).

In other words, no matter how you spin this banner, it still says the same thing.

It is indeed a bit hard to read, however that is probably due to having a font that says WAR however you spin it. I like it very much, thank you for sharing
