I'm working on some posters for our #skypirates for #assemblyRequired

Here are some posters, tell me what you think!

The first is inspired by futurist art, because it was the futurist anarchists that everyone assumed would take control of the air in the 1910s (They didn't, WWI happened and the futurists mostly became fascists, and they mostly sucked shit, but some of their art style was interesting and the Russian constructivists and Russian Futurists took up their style and made it in to something much cooler, and that's where I'm drawing this inspiration.)

The second is Fred the Baker as a sky pirate.

The Manifesto of the Sky Pirate. Yellow and black with blocky font going in mutiple directions. Says "The Manifesto of the Sky Pirate We want you to be a sky pirate. The essential elements of Sky Piracy are poetry, audacity, and revolutionary joy. Beauty exists i all things and most significantly in the joy of revolution. We are facing the end of society as we have known it and must be ready to support one another and build a new world on the remnants of the old. The splendor of the world has been enriched by a new beauty, the beauty of slow. An airship wafting through the sky, a nap, is more beautiful than gunfire. We will build museums and libraries, fight capitalism, fascism, and all bigots and opportunists. We will build a new world, and you will join us. Each of us is a poet. Each poet among us must make the revolution irresistible. We will exalt movements of compassion, thoughtfulness, mutual aide, and revolutionary joy. "

I made some small modifications to my sky pirate manifesto poster. I'll have some printed tomorrow.

No text changes, just some updated placement and fixed a typo.
