Super Glow! I reuploaded this critique because the last version I uploaded went fubar. Here's the newest version, presented more clearly. Ignore the button text ;)



Comments and suggestions, as always, welcomed and appreciated. :)

design is strong.. might read as a blue blob from a distance tho.. maybe if u made colors that dont vibrate against one another.. maybe complement colors.. just an idea..



critique my new designs

Thanks for the suggestions. Anyone else?

BUMP

Cool how you achieved that effect on the astronauts! Very straightforward concept, which could be good or bad, I guess. Consider highlighting the moon a bit more?

Add a dark outine around each person so its not one big blob.

The glow version looks much better than the regular version, which looks blobby because the lack of contrast. I suggest you use the outline only version as the main one, maybe in blue, and suggest the glow over it.

Oh, and i don't think the diagonal stripes are helping this design, rather than cluttering it.

I agree with everyone. The "day version" needs more contrast. Otherwise it's a great design. Must have taken forever to trace.

I took everyone's suggestions to heart, and I added a black outline to add some contrast to the details better. I hope you like :)



(Excuse the jpeg quality... It was the only way I could get the file small enough to be allowed to upload)

I like it on the blue. I wouldn't mind seeing the line elements going further up the shirt as well as the moon higher up.

hurray for photoshop and filtered images!

It's not filtered either. No need to post in spite...

Why are people always so ready to attack?

I'd like to see the image go up the shirt a little more too.

and bring out the moon more. I can just barely see it.

You're not supposed to be able to see the moon in the day very well; it's printed in glow ink. Click the buttons to see the image in glow in the dark.

Also, if you click "Don't Submit" at least tell me why.

needs a bit of work on the actual image, concepts is good. Perhaps trying to hand draw the astronaut and moon components?

i think i commented this b4.. but i think it would look like a blue blob for a distance so maybe u should choose complement colors so they register better and do not vibrate... maybe u could use that green color thats in the back of them for the astronauts

I like the moon but maybe bigger (like 2-3 times bigger). Like the outline, much better:)

I really like the idea. I think that I'd like to see the stripes go farther across the shirt, though, and I love more definition on the astronauts...

Okay, new version coming soon.

In this version, I've made some considerable changes. Made a huge change in the contrasting colours of the main design, dropped the lines, and I changed the presentation.



Comments and suggestions plox :)

Again, excuse the image quality. The actual vector obviously isn't grainy. I had to reduce the jpeg quality in order to fit the 250kb size limit.

bump plox.

geez, no one has anything to say?

last bump.

okay 1 more bump

Im not sure, something isnt right about this one. I think it needs more, just a group of astronauts isnt doing it for me. Maybe you need to change it to a group astronauts getting wasted on the moon, or a group of astronauts riding a rocket like it was some kind of space whale, or even have them riding a space whale. But just a group of astronauts just doesnt do it. Sorry, not trying to bash you, but this is a critique

hmm that could be tricky

I actually enjoy the first one you did. It is marvelous!

I thought so too... I liked the vibration effect it made on the viewer's eyes.
