Wow, brilliant illustration here... I'm going to wait til I get home from work to really look it over and see if I can't help with some critiquing... but really, great illustration.
Oh, HELL YES. This is so awesome, I can't stop smiling. A few really minor things: The left side of Revere (his right) tends to disappear into the background of trees when I look at it on the shirt. Maybe you could lighten that up a bit, add a few more highlights or whatnot to make sure he's separated from the background. And yeah, I would show the design first, and then the placement. Aside from that, this is great. By far the best thing I've seen today.
Sweet work Robbie! That advice about the left side highlights on Revere seems like a good idea. I'd still like to see the ground and tree texture faded a bit more to make the characters stand out. Can't wait to see the final product. :)
Great job! I like your use of textures. His right hand looks a bit funky, and the bell seems different from the rest of it; it kind of stands out. I'd also tone done the lightest bits of the road/fog at the bottom or extend it off the shirt (as it is now, it's kind of abrupt).
If you've got a moment, I'd appreciate any suggestions you might have for improving this.
Amazing ullustration... very jealous. I think the robot and trees are great. not sure I agree with bringing out the colours in the flag more i think that will take too much attention away from the rider. The rider is in the forground and would definatly agree with bringing him out more. Particularly his right hand side. I know its meant to be darker as the light is on his left but perhaps you could lighten the whole thing! I can see what your trying to achieve with the dust at the horses feet but i think it would be better to at least have the front feet dust free as the dust is more realistically going to begin behind the front legs. Plus i would like to see a little of his back left leg as it can't all be hidden behind the front right leg. Finally jsut to say it would be quite nice.. although this is less important... to see the path more defined as it dissappears into the forest.
Outstanding really! even if you putted it in critique section, it will be hard to find something to improve it, sincerely...i love it.
Something that would be USEFUL is to put SLide 2 in main frame, really, as some people don't look at slides, and "scores quick"...you'll permit to see directly the details.
for me this is a winner, that's what i hope for you, good luck!
I agree with nasmo and Standz about the light on Mr. Revere and the horse's leg.
OtterPapi had a good idea about the road fading away in front. A circle of light is correct as far as the lamp. But a fade to black would work better in this design on a shirt.
Yeah I like the idea of a fade to gray of the ground and trees to the bottom. That and some highlights around Revere would really make the whole thing pop I think.
ok. so here is my big question, if the robot is the british, why has he ripped up big ben? other then that i think its a sweet drawing. my only thing i would change is have the path he is on clearly go around a corner or a rock or into the trees rather than fade into a blur. good work!
please give me some honest feedback if you have the time though.
