# Vacationing Superheroes Max Kostenko Plastic Window Illustrations Show Heroes on Their Days Off By Jason Soy | Published 2011-05-16 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/max-kostenko-plastic-window References: [whitezine](http://www.whitezine.com/en/graphic/max-kostenko.html) & [behance.net](http://www.behance.net/gallery/Plastic-window/488060) These Max Kostenko Plastic Window illustrations are sure to have people cracking up. As the world is falling apart around them, all these [caped crusaders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sickkids-foundation-ad) can think about is catching up with some much-needed sleep or reading the newspaper while on the can. These two illustrations, which feature [Superman snuggled up on a couch](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chuck-e-cheese-superman) and [Spiderman reading on a toilet](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spiderman-x-crocs), were actually made for a plastic window company, demonstrating the product’s ability to completely block out sound. But even without context, these comedic illustrations are quite a hoot. As seen in his various sketches, Kostenko is very much a perfectionist, as he’ll play around with multiple versions of an illustration before settling only on the best. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.9/10 - Popularity: 70% | Activity: 68% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Superhero Humor:** Opportunity to create humorous depictions of popular superheroes for non-traditional marketing purposes. - **Whimsical Illustrations:** Opportunity to expand the use of whimsical illustrations in advertising and marketing campaigns. - **Soundproofing Products:** Opportunity to promote soundproofing products through creative and unconventional marketing techniques. ### Where This Applies - **Marketing and Advertising:** Opportunity to use quirky and humorous illustrations to attract and engage customers. - **Home Improvement:** Opportunity to showcase soundproofing products in a fun and memorable way for homeowners. - **Entertainment:** Opportunity to leverage popular superheroes in unconventional ways for entertainment purposes. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Superhero-Themed Headphone Stands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3dprinted-headphone-stands.md) - [Comic-Inspired Soda Cans](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-heroes.md) - [Collectible Cosplay Condiments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heinz-ketchup-and-mustard.md) - [3D Superhero Block-Puzzle Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amazing-spiderman-set.md) - [Comic Book Hero Collectibles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/comic-book-heros.md) - [Classic Superhero-Inspired Donuts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/krispy-kreme-hungry-for-heroes.md) - [Comic-Themed Tech Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/super-heroes-vs-villains.md) - [Superhero-Themed DIY Art Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jim-lee-batman.md) - [Buildable 3D Superhero Displays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gotham-city-skyline-set.md)
