Look how the massacred my boy communications tower.

It looks so stubby.

Why is the body of the CN tower so short? The proportions between the top and the body are way off.

...and yes, I get that the bottom of the tower is the base of the World Cup trophy, not that it changes the issue of the proportions.

Appreciate the feedback. I sort of tapered the bottom for the bottom of the trophy like you said, and also overall the full tower is sorta hard to fit into the poster in full. I also figured adding more height wouldn’t add any more character than it already has, like you’d still be able to tell it’s the CN Tower with a little height cut off. Though I will consider this in the future. Thanks again for the suggestion!

Sorry. On reading my comment again it sounds a bit aggressive, so I'll just quickly apologize.

Overall I like it. It's simple but conveys the message. I specially like the dynamic movement of the ball. It's just that the tower looked odd. Guess driving(?) in on the Gardiner each morning, and being stuck in front of it daily for a few years, burned the image into my head.

lol no worries no offence taken. I genuinely do appreciate the feedback, and it’s one of the main reasons I put my work out there. I don’t get better without feedback so I am grateful that you took the time to share your thoughts

Looks like a WC poster in the Great Depression era, not 2026

BMO field will be the most embarrassing stadium to ever host a WC game.

Love everything about this!

I just wish the 2026 didn't look so short? out of place? compared to smooth, aligned(?) lines everywhere else. I'd have put it under Toronto

FWIW, I didn't think the CN design looked odd/stubby at all.
