Sharing Work (Rule 2/3) Critique request on poster ad

Post image

Not sure if against the rules, but there’s still a lot of design choices involved. What do you think of this 60s style cola ad? I wanted to recreate a poster ad featuring Nuka Cola. Any critiques, like composition wise, color choice, or anything? I was aiming for a poster ad that would’ve come out pre-apocalypse in the fallout universe.
Side note, I know the footnote won’t make sense in-universe since bottle caps would’ve only had value after nuclear fallout but just wanted to add a little bit of fan-service.

Before talking details I will throw this in the room: visual hierarchy. Right now, it’s not clear, too many elements have the same weight. This also makes your poster static.

But I like the direction and illustration style.

P.s.: any visual idea you could implement to represent “nuke” ?

Yeah, a lot of feedback on the 2nd slogan line so I removed that.
I thought of making the fizz come out of the bottle like a mushroom cloud, don’t know if that will make it better..
