I love drawing these made up women from the 40s and this was one that already existed in my sketchbook. decided to give it an unusual color scheme and here you have it. What does everyone think? and I'm not sure if I like the name I gave it, are there any suggestions?

I don't find anything witchy about her, or particularlly fetching. I guess maybe that's not what you're looking for here though, I keep expecting to see like a pin-up type thing.

I think I just came up with the perfect name for this tee, "Femme Fatale." What does everyone think?

The illustration its very vintage, I´m a vintage girl XD ejeje
but I a gree with disgruntled, theres nothing witchy, cotinue, it is nice |
|
loving the style of it and really think it looks great! If anything, perhaps she could have some more attitude eg. small facial tattoos or piercings to mix the vintage with the modern...

I think she looks like a disillusioned Wilma Flintstone. Was that deliberate?
I'm not sure what you want to express with the title. Visually you might want to change the dark blue for black. Or at it as another color. to improve teh contrast/depth in the image. Please comment on my latest design: "Pick Me" |
|
I like the name Femme Fatale better, but i feel like her hair should be black if you go with that. Not sure why but that feels like it fits better. Haha.
Thanks for your comments on my design. |

So here are some variations on the suggestions I got from my original. The picture in the middle is what inspired the color scheme for the original. Personally I still like the original. How does everyone else feel?

I like the higher contrast one much better... stands out more to me
I would appreciate it if you would rate or comment on my design The Night Rocker |

Gardetto on Jun 24 '10
i really like the red and black one.. great design!
|

I am not leaning toward the higher contrast. I still feel like the black makes everything look a bit muddy.

Mostly Black DEF

Alright so I am debating between these two versions. Personally I think that the red and blue one is much more interesting than the black and orange one. I feel like the red and blue is unexpected and therefore stronger. What does everyone else think?
|
|
drawingnut on Jun 27 '10
does anyone know if I could submit this design with 2 different color options as shown here? Or do I have to choose one? I'm having a tough time deciding.

I personally prefer the red and blue myself. It is more unexpected and it also reminds me of I Love Lucy because of the red hair, which I like.

very cool illustration style.
definitely perfer the red and blue for sure. i dont really have any suggestions for the design. all i see is maybe do something else behind the circle? idk that might be to much. i say submit that suckkaa. great illustration and if you get the time could you critique mine? WOULD BE AWESOME IF YOU COULD |

drawingnut on Jun 28 '10
Thanks for your support I think I really need the reassurance.

drawingnut on Jun 28 '10
I think this might be the last version :)

i don't get it...but i assume it's a cultural thing that connects to the 50s or so...cause that's what the illustration feels like...
however, it is a very good illustration and the placement feels very right! so very nicely done! Please help me out and rate my design: Killer B |

gap the lips a little around the cig. It looks like she's pissed cause someone superglued a ciggie to her lips.
|
|
Gergeosson on Jun 30 '10
Oh! I love this, it's very vintage :D
However, I agree with jumppuppyjump about the lips :) Also, the cirkel thingy behind her should have the same grudgy effect as the woman imo. |

dfurman on Jul 01 '10
cool, submit!

nerina on Jul 03 '10
I like this, I would just try to experiment with the blue a little. The blue tone bothers me a little bit. Otherwise nice :)

I like the pastel effect on the design but it looks wrong on top of the vectorised circle in the background. the whole design should be one thing or the other -not both. Use that pastel effect on the circle or maybe distress it a little. I dig the look of this, it has that 50's Coca Cola advertising look about it. Hope that helps.

hahah, interesting (: i'd wear it.
I don't get it, but it's cool in a random way (: comment mine? http://www.threadless.com/critique/71494/Shrooms |

drawingnut on Jul 04 '10
Alright so I am pretty sure I'm gonna call this design "Femme Fatal" from now on. Also you will notice that I distressed the circle behind the woman. I kind of like it, but I fell that now it looks a little busy. What does everyone else think?
|

Gonzo Gonzo on Jul 04 '10
Nope I think it looks great on the shirt. Nice job

pooparsch on Jul 05 '10

That is awesome. Love the style and minimal colors. The line quality creates fantastic texture.
