This is an idea I've been toying with for a while. I decided to resurrect it. Let me know what you think.

Hah, so that's the trick.



I'm distracted by the text. If you shortened the stem and left off the words, the idea would come through stronger.

I agree that the text kind of takes away from the actual image. Perhaps some milk drippage would like nice too.

Do you think I should remove the text altogether, or just make it thinner/smaller? I'll definitely get some milk going.

Definitely cut the text. Milk drips and/or puddles would be a crucial addition to the design. As a veggie I really appreciate this concept and would like to see it go far (: Are those white strips on the bean milk? Not too sure about those, but the quality ended up a little shaky from the transition from your comp to the net, so maybe I'm just not seeing it clearly.



I like this, don't let it die out again!

Please take a look at MY design in need of resurrection:

Sorry about the number of versions. I messed up and sent in a blank one. 2 and 4 are the same.

So what do you guys think? Is this ready for submission? Is this idea working?

the outline seems kinda scrappy/pixelated maybe make it a bit bolder.

also it was a bit lost on me as i have no idea what a soya bean looks like. maybe it should be hooked up to a milking machine, or somebody should be milking it?

Yeah, toughen up the outline a little. Better than the original. I like the right placement.

ok. I'll work on the outline. Are you saying that it should be thicker, or just cleaner?

I think both would look nice.

cool. I'll get on it.

Ok, I stuck with the smaller, right shoulder composition and thickened and cleaned up the lines.

It's getting close. I think you can touch up a few of the inside lines as well. Maybe not as thick to give it a little variation. Play around and see what you like. It does look a little pixely. Check the resolution. Should be 150 or higher. If it is, what program are you using to draw it?

I'm using Painter. I was using a pretty small brush for the inside lines. Maybe that's what's causing the pixelation. That and the fact that the file you're looking at is a LOT smaller than the original.

Gotcha. Well, you could submit if you're happy then.
