Also every fave and comment will count in the battle

The theme for the fight was "echo".

I have been very inspired by the Olympic poster for the 1968 games in Mexico City I am a huge fan of old posters and I actually have a pile with several old olympic posters in A3 lying around at home.

My original idea was to do something about a soundwaves visualisation and I immediately remembered the Mexico poster. I felt it fit right in, this being the entry for a competition and that is pretty damn Olympic

I made the fonts myself, looking at it now, the crossbar in the e could have been more at a 45° angle than a 0° one, it looks a bit heavy on the right side. That way I may keep the roundness. But I won't change it now, it's already in the fight and it would be unfair to change something now.

And … well, it turned out to look kinda iOS7-ish

100% Illustrator, no raster effects

I hope you like it
