Is the design better in one color or two? If the design is one color, preferably black, it could go on any color shirt except for the really dark colors. Any suggestions?

i think it would look better if it wasnt so boxy looking, otherwise, i think that ist cool!

Yea maybe the area should be smaller and the edges complete

should i keep it all black?

also, it needs to be less boxy looking but with complete edges? how is that going to be possible?!?!

this is cool!...yes, keep it all black. i agree with making it less boxy looking, but i don't think the edges need to be complete. i think leaving them open (not sure if i'm describing that right?), or letting them just sort of fade out would look good...but yeah, i think this is awesome!

one colour is best

Here is a "less boxy" version in one color only. Your thoughts?

I like it, but right now it's just a mass of black lines. There is no focus.

that's kind of the point. there's a lot to look at.

Even if its kept as just a single color, I'd play with the combination rather than just plain black.

it would look good if you put the design in one color that is the same color but a different tone as the shirt color. so dark blue on light blue (or vice versa) or dark green on light green.

I will critique!

I think this would look better if it was a little smaller, and... as the shape it was in the first version.

Also, on either a light or dark color. None of the primarys.

Also, yes, a different color on a lighter or dark color would look good.

I think dark green on light pink or light blue would look good.

Or the other way around.

agree

throw in a single color for accent here and there!

I took a couple of your suggestions and tried a similar color ink to the shirt color, only slightly darker. I also tried a couple with extra accent colors.

maybe try diffewrent line widths. Vary them.

Yeah...that would require me to redraw the whole thing.



I'm just looking for colors, layout, size help at this point.

This is some awesome looking vomit, I must say ;)

I actually like the all black V2, I don't mind the boxiness of V1, but I see a lot of comments on threadless that suggest most people don't like the "boxy" thing.

I think the dark black lines on the bright blue shirt in V2 is the best - great job!

very nice!

two suggestions:



just try filling it in with some colors. if you don't like it that's fine, but i think some clashing colors would work nice in there.



second, don't use the threadless template. it doesn't show how it looks on an actual shirt at all. so either make your own, or use a model.



i think models can be found under the name lessthread on flickr.





i do like this, though.

My computer keeps freaking out...but this is the lastest (it's the same as V4)



Okay...I think it's down to the last. I put it on real models, narrowed it down to gray/black on gray or teal/black on forest. I messed around to filling in the colors, but it looked like a messed up holstein cow or camouflage. So this is the latest.



Two ink colors, different shades but same hue as the shirt.



Let me know the verdict. I would love to be able to submit this as is.

Good stuff. I like it on both colors too, although I think the grey shows up better. I also liked the sagestone and charcoal colors you had in your older version. I say submit it. If it feels complete to you, then go for it.

sub it!

Okay people...last chance to comment. I'm going to sub this tomorrow...pending any future genius ideas.

im gonna buy this when it gets printed...

this is intense, one of the more interesting designs i've seen so far. i really like how dark it is on the shirt, i'm more likely to wear subtle & muted stuff like this. anyway, this looks ready to go.

Change the name

Thanks to everyone. I subbed it, so now you can go vote. I truly appreciate everyone's constructive advice. :)
