I like to do labels for my ciders, and I like to base them on film poster from the Spanish film maker Luis Bunuel :)
First draft of a label for one of my ciders

You brightened my brew day.
I am too lazy to make labels, so I sometimes drink some surprise beer or cider.

Un Cidre Andalou?

That would be fun, but do they do sidra in Andalusia? I was under the impression Spanish cider is more or less Asturian or nothing.

I don’t believe so. People may produce it for personal consumption at lower elevations of the Sierra Nevada.
I just liked the name, and it made me think of the Pixies song ‘Debaser’ about Un Chien Andalou which has the line ‘slicing up eyeballs, I want you to know’ which easily goes to ‘slicing up apples, I want you to know’

i feel like the thread doesn’t look like it’s pulling on the lips at all… like, the lips should be slightly deformed from having thread squeezing them shut…

Love it! Highly likely I’d buy this if I saw it on a shelf just because of the label!

Cheers :) It’s “stolen” art of course, I could not use this for anything commercial I am sure. But when it’s just for me and my friends this is the way I prefer to do it.

It’s still awesome, stolen or not :) I do love the idea of using movie poster - style graphics as wine or cider labels, I think it’s a great match.
