Eh...I can't help but stare at the mess on the bottom trying to figure out what it is.

I think it's supposed to be rubble. Those are eagles, not sea gulls. And what's with teh Kremiln in the back right?

If I didn't know better I'd think this is pro-republic statement.

I agree. Considering a lot of his imagery is used frequently on a lot of his prints and HPMs. Ironically enough, it looks like the propaganda industries building is in there...

Love it. Its different, but still familiar with many Obey trademarks(the red/black, the rays, the blimp, the buildings). The rubble up front reminds me of Logan Hicks work.

I love it. I think those are vultures also, but I could be wrong. One of the best of the year!

The bird on the left looks like the same one from Sunsets... Looks like he brought back up this time.

I think those are American Bald Eagles...I like to call them Freedom Birds. Oddly enough, I think the rubble is going to look really nice in person.

I really like most of the image, but the "rubble" looks like a bad photoshop filter
