Illustration artwork required for branding

Challenge :

Create branding for a bottle of plant supplement called "Bud Beast".

The product design needs to be highly creative and original, ideas of a muscular monster (not neccisarily angry) coming out of some short plants with massive flowers and buds to them are my inital thought but maybe you can be creative.


The product itself inhibits a plants stems stopping them from growing tall and allowing the plant to focus on creating large well formed and ripened flowers / fruits or what have you !
