Opinions on my little monster?

Sup everyone? This will be my first submission to threadless, so I need all the advice and tips I can get. So....yeah, let me know what you think. If it were to end up on a shirt, would you buy/wear it? Any and all comments are greatly appreciated. Thanks. ^^

I like the tentacles, but the main body looks like a paper bag, maybe change the shape or color:) I like whatever you have as the shadow too, really nice!

Lol, well...it actually IS a paper bag. He's supposed to be hiding under it to try to hide his hideousness so to speak.

i think its cute, but i actually can't figure out what he's holding (i guessed a candle stick?), or why he's even holding it. Great 1'st design, it just needs a little development though. Maybe make the paper bag have ridges at the bottom so it looks more paper baggy? Good luck! :)

sorry double post :/

I could see immediately that it was a monster with a paper bag on its head, but it took me a minute to see that it is holding a marker and make a connection with the bag. Maybe making the marker more obvious would solve that issue. Good work overall and I could see this as a kids shirt.

Oh! I get it!~ lol

I clearly need to work on the marker to get the idea to be more obvious. I'm going to redesign that part and re-post something new. Thanks guys - stay tuned.

Just a quick update. I am redesigning other things as well (which explains the missing elements from the design posted earlier)

The marker looks much better now, i cant believe i thought it was a candle lol

I agree, that's a much better improvement with the marker. Looking forward to seeing how this turns out.

Really love it! I would say put SOME kind of face back on the bag... but somehow make it look a little more obvious that it's been drawn on in marker? Crude and scribbly-ish.
Good luck! ^^
