It's about using great sources for your work, and I think you found a way to compliment Primus perfectly.

Glad you like it! It was that or the moon landing, which, as it turns out, ended up not being solely my idea.

HA!!!!!!! I think it best captures the spirit, humor, and feeling of the band. Music reviewers have repeatedly compared Claypool's voice to that of a cartoon character, and the stories to imaginative tales (from the punchbowl). And then there are the characters on the album covers (and I think Claypool made all of those sculptures under the psuedonym Snap).

Agreed! I've always thought Primus was sort of an fleshy representation of cartoony goofiness!

I laughed way, way to hard at this one. You missed the /r/books battle. Good job!

I prefer the shopped pics where people take the time to move around the elements rather than cropping out a section and placing it over a new layer. Well done!

The face on the driver is a perfect representation of every Prius driver. Driving around like a moron, causing traffic jams.

Not enough Primus lovers in here, unfortunately. :( This one deserves more upvotes.

Hey now, I'm just glad I got to choose the photo for this week; don't have to like primus to make an awesome shop of them!

u/TillyOTilly Aug 31 '13
Of course not! You just have to be a fan to appreciate the relevant shops of them :p

These guys made me think of the (not-so-great) movie Wild Wild West with Will Smith. Here's my entry for Battle #78!

I am not trying to be mean but where is the content from the picture above. I only see two steampunk airships I don't see any of the people.
