The Crack Up!

This is my submission for the second day of @boringfriends #shittyartchallenge .

The prompt from @retrosupply was "throwback" and I couldn't help but want to do something with chickens and an imaginary old movie poster.
When I was younger I used to always love visiting my older brother and hanging out with his chickens and imagining a whole variety of different storylines that were unfolding. They are wild and playful creatures, that are like weird little tiny dinosaurs. Their hilarious shenanigans always "Cracked me up".

This was my take on a funny film poster. It's up to you to create your own storyline, just like I did when I was a kid. I also like the play on the word throwback, since eggs are not something to be thrown back and forth...

Thanks again @boringfriends for the inspiration to create! And thanks @retrosupply for all the amazing brushes I utilize all the time in my illustration work.
