first rough composition of what i have in mind. A deer made of trees, bark and branches with blooming flowers all over the branches, let me know whkat ya think.

you know i actually like how the colour bleeds out and over the outlines.maybe let people view it as a shirt, so we can get an idea of where its positioned.

please comment on mine "romulus". im stuck

   alvarejo on Feb 03 '09
i will put an image of it in the tee later

I like this a lot, maybe change they way the flowers are added into this image. The photo cut outs (i think they are if I'm wrong correct me) Arnt adding to how organic the rest of the drawing is.



The deer is great as well i love the whole concept.



I'm instead to see how this will be placed on the T-shirt. Personal suggestion would be lower right. But that's just moi!

this is only a rough skecth for the idea. evrything will then be hand drwan with lots of details

Personally I would like to see the entire deer. Other then that I like the style and colors!

I don't think the bird is really needed, but since it is just a rough sketch it is hard to imagine what the bird would look like in the end. Also have you considered if there is going to be any kind of background?

I like the idea! I can't wait to see your more detailed drafts. I'll be watching this one!

thanks for the suggestions

I really like this style of watercolor-ish color over linework; is that what you plan to stay with or will it be more detailed? I really like the concept and idea a LOT and agree that seeing the entire deer would be awesome. I'm definitely going to keep an eye on this one. :)
alvarejo
   alvarejo on Feb 04 '09
it will be very detailed, and yes, i will draw the entire deer. Thanks for the input ;)

Knowing your previous subs, i believe the way you will draw it will be great.

I do think that if you go for drawing the entire deer it might end up looking to much like topiary by valorandvellum.

maybe there is another way of approaching it.

father nature's pet? ummmm sorry no suggestions right now, Ill check it out when its further down the processs, I would say add the whole body etc but you're already doing that
alvarejo
   alvarejo on Feb 04 '09
it is much too similar to Topiary, so i think i0ll throw this ti the trash. Damned subconcious mind! :P
bcrider
bcrider on Feb 04 '09
Oh, man! I had forgotten all about valorandvellum's sub. :(

Lonkiponk on Feb 04 '09
:-( sorry......

I did not meen for you to through it away.

Lonkiponk on Feb 04 '09

alvarejo
   alvarejo on Feb 04 '09
no man, thank! it was for the better. I subconsiusly copied it. I'll make a real deer jumping and from his horns a tree will form, trying to do this drawing as epic as i can jaja
bcrider
bcrider on Feb 04 '09
I definitely don't think it should be thrown in the can; it could stand on its own... it just needs to be different from the previous sub... right? So maybe NOT drawing the whole deer; leave it kind of like it is, and use a bottom placement. The focus would be more on the head and antlers. I think you can do this and make it work fine!!!



bcrider
bcrider on Feb 04 '09
Oops; posted too soon! LOL

Go for it.

Make it epic.

This an amazing design. I love the coloring and how you "captured" the posture of the deer. I would suggest making the flowers a tad more "sketchy". Its great work overall.

Me encanta como se ve esto, creo que puede resultar en un diseño genial.



Definitivamente creo que deberias hacerlo bien "rough", con los colores que se salen de las líneas y eso, porque le dá un lindo toque y aporta a lo natural del diseño.



Saludos y suerte ;)

I like it a lot - how about lichen or moss on the antlers as well, peeling down the way that the velvet peels off their antlers in the autumn

If you have a moment to look at mine, would be much appriciated

I love this idea. I think this would look amazing if done right. It would look really good if you went from this brushy look to a vectored realistic look. Very cool, great work.

If you have time could you critique mine? Thanks.

dang, you've got a jilllion comments on your critique! I know why....you do great work. I have nothing new to add to this crit. I think if you do it, it'll be great! (I'll have to check out Topiary, because I'm not familiar with it.)

Please critique the latest version of mine if you have the chance :)

Que te parece que empieze como un boceto tipo Davinci con un trazo y valla creciendo en detalle como mencionas como si fuera saliendo de la camiseta, como el dibujo famoso de davnci donde un brazo se dibuja al otro y viene de lo plano a lo tridimencional.
