@jimmiiko: Sure it's straightforward, but what's wrong with litteral art? Granted there's no great message here, but then again maybe the message is in there being no need for one... or something. I'm happy for the imput but if you could elaborate or provide suggestions I would very much appreciate it.
@actonacto: Thanks! I thought it looked neat enough. Text might be the way to go to add something to it.
Should have a cleaner image up later on today, keep the constructive criticism comming! If you don't like it please let me know why not!
I wish people who voted don't submit, would actually say why. It's unhelpful and insulting all at once, the point of this area is to critique... And annoymous votes against don't really fit that bill.
Anyways, thanks for the comments. I like it on blue, if I resubmit it, it will definitely be on Navy. My only concern is that without the border the colours are too close for me to use the orange for the bottom clouds.
not a huge fan, although...if you're knowledgeable about stenciling you could possibly make the cloud in the loose shape of Einstein which would also give it the meaning people believe it is lacking
I think you are loosing the main part of the mushroom cloud, because of the lack of contrast with the surrounding colours. I think this might have far more 'punch' if you made the mushroom cloud the same colour as the frame.
Bit of a touchup, changed the explosion colour to that of the ring, and brought in yellow for more contrast, in the arcs and inside the white, which used to be the same colour as the ring
Nothing hidden, though if you want to find anything in it, then you're welcome to. Unfortunately I think that might be part of the problem, it looks like there should be hidden things but there aren't. I've considered hidding things in it, but I don't have the time to do it at the moment. And I honestly don't think it needs it.
Uggh, well version 4 is the intended update... though it's gotten pixelized on me. Thats the intended layout in anycase. Any thoughts on moving anything around or the like?
Well, I can't see version 5, but from the looks of the other versions and version 4 its pretty interesting. Not much to think about though, it's just there.
Alright, this should be the final submission version. I think I've got everything where I want it and the colours are more or less set (i think). Anything still glaring at anyone? Or time to toss it to the wolves...
I really like this final version here. Maybe a darker shade of orange? Or just make that shade with less opacity, I just think it looks like a sticker with that shade.
Agreed. The contrast between the bright orange of the circle and the dark shirt colors is a bit weird. Other than that, perfect, and ready for submission.
Ok, so a minor change to go with a couple suggestions, just switched the lower cloud colour for the main one/ring. Hope this is what people had in mind. I can't get the contrast I had in #3 as the shirts just don't come in that shade.
Thanks for all the input, hopefully I'm working in the right direction.
