Ilias Sounas’ Condomunity Member Illustration Tutorial

July 21, 2008 | Published in Art Design | 0 Comments

Today we’re starting a new series on condomunity.com about the “condomunity member“. It’s basically a character design tutorial like many others out there - just that I wanted it to be more like an illustration and possibly also an rss icon. I’ve picked 5 illustrators to hand in an artwork in their own typical style.

This condomunity member character tutorial is done by 29 years old greek illustrator and 2d animator, Ilias Sounas. The article covers some of his methods of creating characters and illustrations mainly in Adobe’s Illustrator and a short interview and overview of his work.

The Top 7 Places to Get Pregnant

After the kind mention on Environmental graffiti I think the time has come to also release our prepared, perhaps a bit more detailed graphics on condom prices around the world. The survey is based on the average price of a Durex Elite 12 pack around the world (and not on other possibly cheaper possibilities). Interestingly enough the condoms in Ireland have a luxury tax on top of the price, which is absolutely ridicolous if you ask me.

As Zurich (my hometown) tops the quality of living survey for the seventh time in a row, I’d like to share my “Condomunity Quality of Living 2008″ list.

There are 10 cities that have made the list this year because of various (and not always very important) reasons:

  • Buenos Aires
    This city covered its Obelisk of Buenos Aires in a huge condom as part of an awareness campaign for the 2005 World Aids Day. Buenos Aires probably also has one of the most beautiful streetart examples for condom use “usa preservativo“.

Spray-On Condom Not Coming (Anytime Soon)

We’re very pleased to feature our first news and this interview about the spray-on condom. It was in the end of 2006 that the idea of a spray-on condom was first presented to the press.

Now, almost 18 months later and shortly before the scheduled release date we could speak with Jan Vinzenz Krause, the inventor of the spray-on condom (original interview in German) and learned that:

In a nutshell: with the current technical possibilities available, the spray-on condom sadly cannot be realised. Such a product is yet to be put into practice.

Apart from the problems about the spray-on condom technique, we talked about a new technology, about embarking on a journey as an inventor and the future of the condom industry.
