‘Delicilous tears’ is a well known meme[knowyourmeme.com] that I’ve been thinking about in the back of my mind for a while. My original plan was to make a sticker in a 1960s retro style advert with a pretty girl posing alongside a drink with a straw - illustrated in a style very much akin to the Robert McGinnis Stella Artois adverts[s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com] from a few years back which encapsulate the style and era perfectly. But I later deemed that approach not very relevant to the game, and mildly sexist - even as retro pastiche. So in order to sidestep both problems I married the idea up with another one on my list which was to make an illustration of a baddass looking helmet with animating visor, similar to the Renegabes stickers I made.

Rather than looking baddass the end result looks more like Lord Helmet from spaceballs - but instead of drinking coffee through the front grill, it's an SAS respirator with a crazy straw attached to one of those ridiculous beverage hats. In an attempt to add more interesting details I’ve made the liquid animate its route through the straw, and the visor has an animating specular effect.

There are two holographic versions: one with cheerful eyes, and for maximum insult to injury a version with love hearts, along with a paper version.
