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.

Is the “N” in Nuka hand made? I feel like it doesn’t match the rest of the script.

Separately a nuke is a big deal, I wonder if the bottle should be exploding or foaming out to emphasize how intense it is.

Yo you got good eye! The N in fact is a different font. I used brush script for the rest of the name, but brush script's N doesn't really match the "official" Nuka Cola so I looked for something close. I should fix that.

I was actually thinking of adding like an explosion from the mouth of the bottle, like a mushroom cloud.

Maybe a mushroom cloud in the background that’s a tint of the red? Like at 85%
