Hey - nice concept. A couple things - da Vinci means 'of Vinci' in Italian, referencing the birthplace of Leonardo. It is much more appropriate to mention his full name. (the da Vinci Code is a misnomer). Second, you should have a couple more of Leonardo's conveyances - he created the first tank, helicoptor, and the chain drive. Put more in this picture.

Again - good concept, though.

definitely good concept. i have only one piece of criticism:

You're a good photoshopper, but this looks like you tried too hard but didn't quite succeed at to making the things look in place.

it might be easier to make them look more incongruous with the background photo, rather than less, so that the viewer knows it's done on purpose. like chopped out pieces of Leo's sketchbooks in that brownish ink on yellowish paper we always see, slapped right onto the photo.

just my two cents.

Good shit joe. Will, I don't disagree with the truth of your statement that his name is Leonardo, but I disagree with using Leonardo in an advertisment. The Da Vinci Code is the most talked about non-Harry Potter book in the last five years, it is about to be a movie, it has instant recognizability. As an advertiser, Joe is completely better off using that name instead of Leonardo. As for the rest of what you said and what Tommy said, I think you guys are right. Make it look ridiculously crowded. Just like Leonardo's mind, the ad should look like an invasion of ideas and inventions all coming to your main place. Just make sure to keep the museum recogninzable also though. Once again good concept.

Also,
I believe that last year Tommy or Boomer said that no barcrawl will ever live up to the amount of awesome insanity that the Foregone Conclusion barcrawl contained. I hope they were wrong. I hope the Army of Darkness Barcrawl puts last years to shame. For shame. Peace,
Joe
