This is an idea from a few years ago, I just pimped it out and would like a bit of feedback...

It was originally going to be a series, but I never seem to get past the first or second pieces in series...

It's pretty powerful stuff. I'm not too sure about the white outline around the figure, but overall it's a really nice piece. I'm a big fan of the texture effect you've used.

Nice job. :) It reflects Nike quite well actually. I won't buy their products because of the fact they use sweatshops and exploit workers in the third world.

For me, that work is out of realism, outmost realism than any other nike posters.

These works are sort of a third-worldist like. Since it shows that companies coming from the first world, like McDonalds and Nike are also likely to exploit people from commercialism to the use of sweatshops and forced labor.

Kevis, is there no Nestle or something? In the Philippines, Nestle is been criticized much for destroying the worker's unions.

Nestlé have a horrible history, Coca Cola might be a good one to try too.

Since Coca Cola also killed a union leader. Big Comprador Companies are too reactionary, especially against worker's unions and workers themselves, mostly in third world countries where labour is cheap and profitable according to them.

These works being made seemed agitating, and despite that they had foundations in it, the people will continue criticizing, for they focus too much on profit, not on welfare of its workers.
