    Pretty nice, it's interesting.
    Good idea with the overused brands, I like that.
    The skull looks out of place, it should be there, but it looks strange on his head, to popped out.
    Good logos, the GA logo looks low quality, so does the Prada one, other than that it's pretty tight.

    interesting piece, the message is very clear, and brought forth with good usage of imagery, and symbolism.

    as for the execution of the piece i think it lacks quality, the message is very strong and should be delivered as such, but the overall look of it is somewhat of sloppiness. STOP CONSUMING should have had more force and relevance in the image, since it comes across a bit feeble and weak, resulting in an visual interpretation that comes across as if the brands where tougher than the will to stop consuming.

    when working with brands, and campaigns to glorify or destroy them, the clear message has to be unified through the whole piece, the concept is very interesting, but the execution sort of killed it for me.

    another tip about color in a piece. the color you use will define in overall for starters how people react and reason to your piece a scale of grays and opaque colors to depict that which is the message of the piece, makes it go as to a second stage, as for the brands pointing and color makes them stand out before anything else, so at first glance it seems more to be selling brands than actually condemning them. the skull comes around as chaotic and doest fit the ambiance or fits a real purpose for the piece. remember you may understand everything in a piece but the rest surely wont it is your job to make it so that they do

    imagery, symbolism and message have to go hand in hand in a piece of this sort in order for it to be successful maybe paying more attention to this detail will help you develop more in your designs.

    also a word of advice on how to interact with the community would be to also help others improve and not just post to get feedback, this way the more you hlpe others others will take the time to help you
