Funny stuff!

looks awesome, love the halftones and the idea. wonderful as usual $5

For once in a blue moon I agree with Moon Oil, the half-toning is well down and it's a fun sub for having the statue of liberty in a general democracy sub.

What is she holding?

thanks all for the feedback so far.

GreenRabbit, she's holding a lighter -- striking the typical rock pose while at a concert.

Great idea guys!

looooooooooooove this, the best so far $5 PRINT!

The halftones are super cool. I want one!

Thanks everyone.
Keep the comments coming, I hope this one does well!

Too American for my liking.

Yeah I wanted to keep the color very subdued, making the visual speak for itself. There's a lot of detail in the halftones, hopefully you can see it enough from the GIF file I made.

Thanks all.

Hah, I like the idea.

that's dope!

does every democracy design have the statue of liberty or what...

The Statue of Liberty is overused...why not add a twist...maybe have both her arms up with the torch in the original hand. Something. Otherwise great illustration.

Great textures, especially on the halftones

Yeah, we liked how the statue stood as an icon of democracy. We thought about changing up the pose, but the simplicity of the design and concept didn't hold up.

Thanks for the feedback all. We really appreciate it.

Like the textures:)

Like the texture:)

Yeah I worked hard at making all the textures inside the image.
The background clouds are also halftoned, and the line drawing has a broken rough quality too it.

Thanks 'iknowlittleaboutart'

i like the idea, the illustration style and the texture, but i'm not american, and the statue of liberty not represents me :(

is that a lighter

yes, it's a lighter.

Last day to vote.

I lopez you: Yeah the statue, was our way to represent democracy. Totally understand if it doesn't represent you.

Thanks all.

Nice idea, but think lighter needs a flame so more obvious what she is holding.

spacecrazy: it might be hard to see with the small GIF file, but there is a flame on the top of the lighter.

Thanks for the comment.
