This is just a sketch.I wanted to post it before I got too far to see what people thought about the concept before I spent too much time on it. Again it is a sketch. nothing is set in stone.

Thanks.

Cool idea. I think you should put it in context - have a line of freakshow stalls (lobster boy, tattooed man, siamese twins) with people standing around them, and then have this one lonely stall not getting any business. Maybe off to one side.



Or, you could have a whole freakshow of rubbish freaks. The bearded man, the giant dwarf (just a regular guy), the four eyed girl (just a girl wearing glasses...).



Nice style though.

Yeah, I wanted to keep it simple, but I think you are right about putting it in context.

I dig the style, but it's not super apparent that he's a carnival attraction. I can't decide whether I like the subtle nature (minus the sub description), or if I would prefer, like 13strong, to see this in a carnival setting.

Cute, I enjoy the price drop on the sign :)

You can also go the other way- show the amazing bearded man in a cage, surrounded by an excited crowd of people and children watching in awe and pointing at the wonder.

I like the design. Maybe put more emphasis on the word "man"? Also would benefit from some freakshow context.



Feedback is appreciated...

Like it, but i think you need some indication of it being a fair, maybe you should be able to see the fair through bars behind him, as if you're in the cage with him.



And I wonder how it will read on a T-shirt, you might need to make the text bigger and bolder

funny idea and nice style. i like it. i think the sign could look more circusy though.
