This is a shirt for people who still believe in things. Like Ogo Pogo, the Sasquatch, Peace, and Love.

i like this even without the text.

I think that the nessy is nice, but If you were to keep the type on t here that it should be worked alitte. The kerning could be raised for better legibility especially from a distance.
|
|
Magnamoth on Jul 11 '07
good idea man, maybe even a different font?
|
|
sirz on Jul 11 '07
yea a different typeface as well could improve it, maybe something with a wider body, stick with the sans serif type.
|
|
jpweeks on Jul 11 '07
maybe if you spelled "i still belive in things" with different fairy tale characters and monsters...things kids believe in like santa claus
|
|
jpweeks on Jul 11 '07
it just doesnt seem very developed yet
|
|
hanzabean on Jul 11 '07
errr, argh!
I love the little nessie thing (and your note bit is awesome, "peace and love." maybe add another monster thing? like a fairie or something? |
|
Magnamoth on Jul 11 '07
I was thinking of putting some mystical beast on the beast, like a sasquatch riding it or something.
|
|
Magnamoth on Jul 11 '07
1 other quick question, I was using half tones does that count as a color... so was I was I using 3 colors or... 5? If it's three I have some great ideas as to what to do with the other 2.

i like the idea of having a sasquatch or like, a unicorn or something on the back. adds a lil more to the design, which at this point, is still kinda simple.

|
|
Magnamoth on Jul 11 '07
can anyone help me out with some more ideas...
I've added a Unicorn, a gnome, a fairy, and I'm working on the easter bunny (the sasquatch is proving hard to draw) |
|
Magnamoth on Jul 11 '07
I think I need to make it smaller on the shirt, and add 1 more mystical creature.
|
|
sirz on Jul 11 '07
Im not too sure about the suff on the nessies head...looks like snow or something. But some fairies would look kool flying around. The space between the top of the type and the bottom of the image needs fixing, proximity to close.
|
|
Magnamoth on Jul 11 '07
should i make the 2 middle humps of the sea beast into a heart?
|
|
adimple79 on Jul 11 '07
I actually like the original better, but I like the direction you're heading with version 2 as well. Can Nessie have a smile, too, since everyone else does?
|
|
Magnamoth on Jul 14 '07
added a few more "things" what do you all think?
|
|
Magnamoth on Jul 14 '07
anything?
|
|
fouchnickens on Jul 14 '07
The location of the mermaid makes it appear that Nessie's tail is hers, which is a bit awkward. Also the gray scale things on Nessie don't look right to me -- they seem to clutter the presentation.
|
|
Magnamoth on Jul 14 '07
I'll offer a version without the "scales" for this critique, also I could move the mermaid to the left of nessie's neck
|
|
Magnamoth on Jul 14 '07
Without the scales it looks so bad (more like a snake) they also look almost whimsically cloud like which adds to the whole "believing" idea.
|
|
hollyc2010 on Jul 14 '07
I don't really like the text at all...the fact that it says "things" makes me feel weird
|
|
sillybanana on Jul 14 '07
I liked it best in its simplest form...just nessie, but i suppose if its going to say things you need to add more stuff....or you could just do a series of t shirts, the " I still believe in things" t shirts and have a different character on each.
|
|
Magnamoth on Jul 14 '07
I'm torn, I like the simplicity of V1 but I actually really like v4 too, its sort of cool having all sorts of "things" that a lot of people used to believe in but don't up on the shirt.
|
|
AlaskaCannoli on Jul 14 '07
The design is very cool, but I think you should change the font.
If you need a cool font, there is always http://www.dafont.com/ it's the best ! I also suggest more color choices, the blue design could be on something else that helps contrast the colors... |
|
AlaskaCannoli on Jul 14 '07
|
|
Make your lettering look like clouds. It'll match the rest better and get nicer responses when you submit. Consider changing the wording to either "I still believe" or simply "believe."
Of your creatures, I find the big head guy (alien?) and water lady (mermaid?) kind of confusing. And why is batman so serious? Couldn't he be doing something or interacting with the others? Cool concept, though. Good luck! |
|
Magnamoth on Jul 15 '07
I love the idea about a font change and the cloud idea could be cool but I will look at that dafont thing, the contrast idea I'm not so sure of, I have these creatures almost translucent to represent that they are figments of some peoples imaginations, a different color wouldn't translate this aswell.
I'll also try and either fix up the mermaid and alien (they can't be that confusing if you guessed right lol) oh and batman is a serious dude. |
|
Magnamoth on Jul 15 '07
can someone do me a favor and do a color count? I'm not sure if it shouldbe classified as 3 or 6...
|
|
fouchnickens on Jul 15 '07
You have six, unless you make half-tones of the areas where the colors overlap.
|
|
Magnamoth on Jul 15 '07
how do you make halftones?
|
|
AlaskaCannoli on Jul 15 '07
I counted six too.
(I think Fouchnickens means, that the color might change when you make a shape or drawing overlap in the picture.) |
|
Magnamoth on Jul 15 '07
yeah, thats exactly what I did I only used 3 colors (light blue, black and white) and then through some transparency filtering they change when overlapped.
|
|
heyheyitsme on Jul 16 '07
agree with mjoo, make text hand drawn, clouds or something
|
|
heyheyitsme on Jul 16 '07
i like the way you've developed this...
if you can, please comment on mine http://www.threadless.com/critique/5346/The_Weavers_at_the_World_Tree Thanks! |

jasper7777 on Jul 16 '07
I'm sorry I might be jumping in late, but for what its worth, I like the very first Nessie. I don't like the cloads on top of Nessie. maybe you could make the water Nessie is swimming in, into a cloud, and have some of he critters, and batman, and all floating around in the cloud
|
|
Magnamoth on Jul 16 '07
those cloud things are supposed to be like ambigious scales/clouds, I had a version of nessie (wasn't uploaded) without the scales and it looked so wierd, it was more of a giant snake creature, I think the scakes make it more lochness/oggo poggo like.
I'll see what I can do though. |
|
goobers18 on Jul 16 '07
can you change the text to "i still believe" ? cause the "things" are covered by all the creatures.
|
|
Magnamoth on Jul 16 '07
do you know what is unfreaking believable? I made this almost a week before the parappa thing was announced. It's like I'm psychic rofl.
|
|
dabrainiac on Jul 16 '07
I love the Batman! That's the seller for me... Great shirt though.
|
|
SourBitch on Jul 29 '07
lose Batman.
|
|
nikolina100 on Jul 29 '07
hee hee, the batman is great! nice design :)
|
|
the text is too white
|
|
Magnamoth on Jul 29 '07
the way I made it, it has 7 colors I think... and due to the fact I don't know flash that well I made a different version thats different shades of white so it looks like clouds... tell me what you think...
|
|
Magnamoth on Jul 29 '07
should I try and fix the other or is this better?
|
|
RainbowJoy on Jul 29 '07
Fix the other one... It needed those darker blue lines for some definition.
Ditch Batman. |
|
jeweljulie on Jul 29 '07
I like the first version the best.
|
|
J-Ray on Jul 29 '07
I kind of like V1 the best.
|
|
Hero Status on Jul 30 '07
id keep it saying "i still believe in things" but can we do something with that typeface? its really a boring font as is, try something more fairytail - either old english (probably not) or script.
