A Sting in the Tail



This is a label I designed for my latest batch of Home-made Wine. I was inspired by an old Illustration by Ralph Steadman of a waspy thing which had these ugly, vicious legs. I doodled this picture later that day and thought it would be cool to make it into a label for my Mead. It looked a bit nasty for a mead label, but I figured if I called the brew "A Sting in the Tail" it would be justifiable.

I am not sure the overall label works for me, but I do like the bee! I think it looks like a fly in disguise (I am not sure that bee's eyes look like that, but hey...)

update: here are the labels on the bottles... Mmmmm.
