    Are you sure the US won't kick you for this? Looks like a socialist propaganda thing to me :-)

  8. factoryjoe (86 months ago | reply)

    Except that the original was promoting a US service for the military called the "YMCA".

    Sorry, but the socialists weren't the only ones with propanda. ;)

    Why are you calling this new work??
    This poster is my grandfather's art work. It was done with tempera paint!! It is considered one of the top World War I posters.
    He did many others to carve out a meager living, but often the printers would airbrush his and other illustrators' signatures off.
    My grandfather was not a rich man and a bit of an angliphile who freely contributed his time and talent to war effort after losing colleagues on the Lusitania.

    Why not make your own artwork!?

    Hi Spearart4,

    The original poster artwork was amazing and inspirational -- I borrowed the artwork because I myself am not as talented an artist as your grandfather and wanted to carry forth the message of the original.

    You'll notice that I did give credit to Gil Spear, the original artist, in both the description an the work itself.

    The title "The New Work" refers to hacking as the new form of public service, as in the original work the reference was to the YMCA during world war.

    I've always liked this old WW2 style of art more than the new crap nowadays... too overproduced.
