Hey, i know i have pissed a number of you off by submitting an altered design of a shirt already on the market. If you didn't know, that was 'my face before surgery' so feel free to slate that one because changing designs is not the way i usually come up with my ideas. I knew it would probably be viewed as plagiarism but my intent was to improve the design and so i tried to make as many changes as possible. Knowing with hindsight that this is still wrong i apologise to everyone on threadless and hope that this wont put a dampner on how you view the rest of my future designs.

If you can accept this i would love you to give me some comments on my newest sub called 'more powerful than the real'. For the first time in my designs i was really concerned with how the design would look on the shirt so i hope this is noticeable to you guys. I have used different colours and halftone patterns to try and create gradients in places on this monotone style. The composition was created from an old 'mock' fashion shoot photo i took last year using my friends as models. I felt that even though i was just trying to show of the clothes at the time, there was also something more powerful in the image. I worked on this in a new style to me and used a combination of high contrast and vibrant colour to give across my idea.

...Tell me what you think but please be gentle! Jay
