Wow, this is out of control! I love it. I always wanna make something like this. I've never seen communist propaganda posters with Caucasians. Very nice color.

thanks! you've probably seen the Cuban propaganda art, like with Che and Fidel Castro. they're more Hispanic than Caucasian. I like that stuff a lot too but this poster is based more on Russian propaganda art from WWII. the style is a little different.

What I saw the most are actually from my own country, China. Well, that was long ago. Now these propaganda posters became jokes among people. Maybe I'll find one to vector.

You're right... I guess China would probably have quite a bit of propaganda artwork.
I know some people consider it kind of a joke but I really think it is good artwork. The graphic artists back in 1920-1940 really knew what they were doing.

I'm glad you like it. I tweaked the colors FOREVER before I was happy with it. I feel the grey background kind of adds the depressing optimism that you get in the WWII communist propaganda.

most books i read about it ends like human needs faith, if it s not the god, it will be other models,and once the model realises he plays the god's role, he uses his power, that s the point communism crashed to wall too..
